Purpose: The Chapel and accompanying facilities at the Ipswich Crematorium are used regularly for funerary services for the people of Ipswich and surrounding areas. The space and comfort heating for this area is generated by a gas fired boiler. This serves the Chapel, Waiting Room, Toilets, Barers Waiting Room, Staff Kitchen and Staff Changing Area.   Following a part failure within the boiler causing the system to be flooded, the boiler has completely failed and is not able to be repaired. The boiler needs to be replaced including the flue rerouted to terminate through the side wall and not its current path through the chimney stack as this is inaccessible.
