Moving Exisitng Gas Meter : Advice Sought

No reason why not, but the flue is a different matter.

This might actually be possible, although they do prefer them outdoors so they can read them easier.

Probably.

Depends on the boiler and availability of parts. What is the make and model? Is it open flued, balanced or fanned?

Christian.

It's an old Apollo boiler, as described a few threads earlier. I've no idea whether it's open or balanced, and I'm fairly sure it's not fanned.

The message from Organoman contains these words:

Can't see why not.

Not always - you may be able to have a vertical flue from the old terminal to one of the garage roof.

My gas meter is /in/ the garage. If regulations haven't changed since the 70s then no problem.

The current rules, at least in my area, are that meters should be outside, to reduce the risk of gas explosions.

The only people who can tell you that would be your gas supplier. The site would need to be surveyed and the job priced on that. I would guess it would cost a few hundred pounds.

If you can find the installation instructions, which may be online or in the manufacturer's literature if you don't have the originals, those will show what layouts are permitted. Data sheets I have vary from 6m maximum flue length to 27m, depending upon things like the boiler make and type, whether the flue is horizontal or vertical, the flue diameter and whether or not a powered flue is used. There are also limitations on the position of the flue outlet relative to other building components, such as corners, windows etc.
