Default Boxing in a boiler (was Installing toilet in internal bathroom)

(David) wrote in message . com...
As a follow-up to my recent post on minimum bedroom sizes; I want to
create a bedroom by moving the bathroom to an internal room, and the
major issue with doing this seems to involve moving the toilet.
Could the panel let me know if there's a flaw in my plan?


Further to the above, another issue I have is the fact that the
existing bathroom (the new bedroom) has a boiler in it, situated in
the corner directly above the existing loo. Bizarre or what?

My plan is to build a cupboard around the boiler, and probably to put
up a new, small, stud partition alongside it such that the boiler will
be located in a cupboard at the end of the landing rather than in what
will be a bedroom. Are there any pitfalls (ventilation, regulations
etc?) which I need to be aware of, eg having a boiler in the bedroom
or landing? It's a combi job (Sime Friendly Format 100E).

Thanks
David
