You are most likely to be OK with 15mm pipework as tumble
dryers seem to consume around 3kw (the equivelent of one cooker
burner on full)

As to proximity of suitable gas supply that can be determined by
a visit from a gas fitter who should have TUMBLE DRYER (LAU 1)
on his Gas safe card.

Go to http://www.gassaferegister.co.uk/ for a list of suitable
companies in your area.


Many thanks for the LAU 1 techie bit.

I take it that it would be solidly plumbed in and not on a cooker type
flexible connector? That does have a major impact on the site for it.

Cheers.
