James Posted February 8, 2021 Report Share Posted February 8, 2021 Hi, I was looking around a premises last week and found there to be an oil fired boiler at the bottom of stairs from a mezzanine floor. It is also being used as a kitchen point; microwave, kettle etc. There is only one escape route in that part of the building. Would I be correct in suggesting they need some form of fire resisting construction enclosing the boiler in order to protect the escape route? Re siting the stairs is not an option! Look forward to (sensible) replies Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AnthonyB Posted February 9, 2021 Report Share Posted February 9, 2021 If travel distances are short enough a mezzanine floor then they don't always need a protected stair however they shouldn't really pass through an area of high fire risk and some form of enclosure or separation might be advisable Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
