Hi,

Many years back the installer placed the aircon outside where we wanted the evaporator inside. Judging by the comment of a recent gas bottle deliverer, the placement of the aircon between the gas bottles and the gas H/W system is illegal as it is too close? The gas fitter (plumber) certainly knew the correct distance between bottles and H/W system.

The aircon is an inverter and as you can imagine, all the switching is no longer done via arcing mechanical relays.

As a prospective purchaser may ask for an electrical certificate (smoke detectors, RCDs, etc.), I can see funds draining away. Can I get away with it being an old house at least in the aircon case? I know these days it needs RCDs for power AND light, smoke alarms galore, etc.

Thanks.
