I've got to run a 28mm copper pipe from the front to the back of my
house so I can install a Combi Boiler, It will have to lie under the
floor boards - is it O.K to lie it on the sleeper walls and betwean the
joists (3"x2") - I mean has it got to be a certain distance below the
floorboards? Any thing else I might need to know apart from getting a
corgi fitter to do it?. Cheers. Martin

Who is going to know unless you take out an advert in the local paper.
Just
make sure it's secure and not moving about, and it's protected.
Common sense comes in to it.


don't quite undertand, what are sleeper walls


Walls that go across a room part way across under the floor and provide extra
support for the joists.


Quite often, they have a part open structure to allow ventilation and a pipe
could be run through one of the gaps.


and if it can go between
the joists just fix it to the joist with clips

and if it crosses the joists you can get clips that fit under the joists
thats supposint the joists are wood!
