Distance between feed's All aspects of plumbing questions and answers, help, tips and information

[agk1]

Hi, am looking to take a feed off my cold water but easiest/closest is 6" [b]before[/b] the feed to my boiler and about 6' from house feed which has a good pressure, the feed is for a outdoor tap which will not be in constant use, is this too close?

Cheers

If you are talking about high pressure cold mains for a traditional outside tap, the connection can be made anywhere. The boiler position is irrelevant.

Yes, the mains come's in and then feed's the boiler and it was ahead of the boiler feed I was going to tap in so I think you have anwsered my Q.
