Everyone thinks they know about plumbing!it never ceases to amaze me the amount of replies, most of it guesswork on these plumbing threads!

Judging by the picture of the new boiler it’s a Valiant, the PRV output into 15mm pipe is the one on the far right (next to the white 21.5mm condensate pipe) If you can trace that then at least you know. I’m not clear on distance but it’d be very bad to use a long run of pipe for the PRV... Normally it’d straight out (presumably on the same wall as the flue)
When I worked at a poultry processing factory I had to disconnect a heat recovery system from the refrigeration system. The chlorine dioxide they used in the water had eaten away the heat exchangers. So I caped off the 54mm copper pipes and opened the bypass. Then I realized if I moved the bypass back to the pump Room I had 2 X 100m runs of 54mm copper pipe going spare. That was the best ever scrap run Ive ever done.The other side to shortening the pipes is that it is definitely worth collecting the old pipe and taking it to the scrappy. I helped a friend take a load in a few weeks ago and they were very suprised with how much money they got
I fail to see how it can be anything but guess work when you can't investigate what exactly the pipes are for, what else would you expect ?it never ceases to amaze me the amount of replies, most of it guesswork on these plumbing threads!
