Whether it’s because the kitchen is too small for a combi boiler, you want to reduce the noise of your boiler, or you simply don’t like the idea of having one on display, the loft is often an excellent alternative.
If you’re planning a [home renovation](https://www.trustedboiler.co.uk/homeowners), read on – you might be pleasantly surprised!
## **Loft Size**
Most lofts are big enough for a boiler, even in small homes. At Trusted Boilers, we usually recommend leaving 150mm clearance on all sides of a boiler to ensure easy access for engineers. Factors such as the accessibility of the loft and the proposed boiler location, as well as the load-bearing capacity of the contact surface, are equally important. For help with this, it’s best to speak to an experienced engineer.

## **Boiler type**
Combi boilers are usually the best option for a loft space. [Combi boilers are neat, compact, and easy to install](https://www.trustedboiler.co.uk/blog/install-a-combi-boiler). However, a professional will want to understand aspects such as space, water pressure, and the size of the household before advising you on the ideal boiler for your property.
## **Installation**
In the UK, it is illegal to install a boiler unless you are a Gas Safe registered engineer. Even if you are an old-hand at DIY and know the [general principles of boiler installation](https://www.trustedboiler.co.uk/combi-boiler-installation), we would still advise getting it done by a qualified boiler engineer. The risks of ignoring this rule can be significant. Even minor problems with boiler installation can lead to major consequences, such as gas leaks, carbon monoxide poisoning, or deadly explosions. It’s simply not worth taking the gamble when something as volatile as gas is involved!
## **Noise Reduction**
Even though modern combi boilers are very quiet, loft insulation can add an extra buffer for complete, blissful silence. If you work from home, this little tweak can make a big difference during online meetings and is also an excellent strategy for people with noise-sensory sensitivities. If boiler noise is a problem in your property, it’s always worth talking to a professional to find out the most straightforward solution.
## **Lower Water Pressure**
If moving your boiler into the loft sounds too problem free to be true, there is potentially a slight downside. Depending on the shape and size of the property, having a boiler in the loft can mean that it is further away from sinks. This means that you might have to have a little patience when turning on the hot water tap. Loft-located boilers can also result in decreased water pressure, leading to reduced energy efficiency. It all depends upon the property and the set-up, so it’s worth contacting a professional to find out if it’s the right solution for you.
