Is it ok to have a gas boiler in the loft?

Appreciate it not usual but we have a tiny kitchen and the extra cupboard will make a difference.

The entire house is being reply mend so moving this too isn't a big deal.

There isn't a fixed staircase to the loft. It will be some form of loft ladder. Could this be an issue?

Any feedback will be welcome. Please tell me if this is a good/bad idea and what to be aware of etc. It's my first big project and my first house.

Thanks chaps.

The mega flow is already installed in the loft.

It's a small 3 bed detached.

We had heating fitted and the combi boiler is in the loft. We had to get a froststat fitted to keep it from freezing in the winter. There is only a ladder to the loft.
Thanks.

The roof is insulated. The loft floor will be insulated too. Do you think I'll need a frost stat too?
