A boiler can go in the loft, flued through the roof.

She doesn't have a loft, just a top floor.

However, my neighbour has had a boiler installed in her loft. It went AWOL
after a few months, BG came out to fix it (the original fitter couldn't
get out to it and there were young children in a very cold house) and the
guy refused to go up into the loft. Elf and safety! He was persuaded to
change his mind when said neighbour asked him what his supervisor would
say when he smelled the alcohol on his breath!

Must be boarded from hatch to boiler. A permanent light, and a shoot down
ladder. Then he can't refuse.
