Boiler outside anyone?

[RubbishMantra]

In early stages of planning a new kitchen. The space is tiny and awkward, so it's been suggested the boiler go on the outside wall, actually outside, to free up space. I had a look, an lo and behind, there are boilers designed ( one by Worcester) precisely for this purpose. Does anyone live with one, and what's it like?

We had a Grants oil boiler outside at out last house - it was fantastic. We're now in a village that actually has gas - so have got a Worcester Bosch upstairs in a cupboard, but it's fine as the room is used as a dressing room.

Our boiler has always been outside in a little brick structure and we have never had an issue with it.

I would go with outside. You wont get any noise from it then.

Nothing wrong with an outside boiler - thousands of people have them.

Ours is outside, it’s fine. It has a frost protection mode where it circulates water through if the temp drops below 2 degrees, which doesn’t use much fuel at all (think pilot light amounts).
It’s reliable, efficient, and out of the way.
