Please don't give the person who installed that the title "Plumber", clearly someone using push fit to connect copper together is not a member for my trade.
Whats with the safety valve on the mains to the cistern ??
& they seem to only have 400mm lengths of 15mm perhaps their bag was only that long.

Sorry guys had to fly out ...
I installed the cylinder around 6/7 years ago , old lady sadly died . New guy moves in , no hot water , I opens the cupboard and sees this load of *****. Multibloc, tundish , ex valve fed from all directions , cylinder header tank overflow disconnected etc etc . The guy said the plumbers he got in to do his bathroom did this to the cylinder lol .
I said it was wrong , he's had a word with his plumbers and they say its correct and I am wrong ..
So there you go lol

Oh my gawd what on earths going on there Town a classic case of a little bit of knowledge can be dangerous, I would get the installation diagram of how it should be fitted and prove the cylinder is now fitted incorrectly and send it to the dick . Kop

I’ve just thought, on a serious note TFJ. They haven’t tried converting it to a unvented have they? capped the cold feed to the cylinder? With them not knowing it’s a thermal store.

So am I right in thinking they've converted an open vented cylinder to an unvented?

No, I see that. It's as if they had a box of plumbing bits and said "let's use all these today"!
