Let's talk about elec showers

Same situation isolation out side of any zones

Seen a few with cooker switches (50 amp dp) outside the room there to reg as there locally
A shower is designed to be in a bath and or a bathroom, there is no boiler on earth that is designed to be installed in or above a bath. On that basis they are certainly NOT the same situation
 
But it is

It's ip rated and room sealed
What about the fact that as you admitted the siting of the boiler is not practical? Do you think that something that is impractical is acceptable or is it a non compliance with the regs? If you would be happy to put your name to a boiler above a bath that's fine but I wouldn't. Anyway home time now and Happy New year to all

It might be the only place where the boiler could go or only place the bath could go

It hasn't got a shower only club head taps so it's a bath

It's acceptable in the position in regards to doesn't break any gas regs or elec regs as far as I can tell

Put it this way I would rather have heat and hot water than non at all which doesn't comply with regs as you need heat and hotwater
 
Think my last Worcester Bosch boiler was IPX4; you would have to enquire with the manufacturer.

Still think it’s a **** idea.
That's why I asked, a blanket statement on the installation without full knowledge can be a dangerous thing...
