Looks ridiculous and it will airlock regular
Neil,
You might be surprised, once purged it may well not airlock, only having in your house would you know, but I am with you in spirit
having a pump so close to the water level with little or no head is bad, with regard to the workmanship some people will not comment
if they see it, those are they which might get close to fitting something near to this, an old git like me would go up there, lift the tanks and pipe
it in copper, but what do I know about my trade today, my trade is not there any more, it gone well and truly. Some people still have pride
in their work and would love to show it off, if this is a plumber who has done this then I rest my case.
Tate Gallery might buy it.
PS I wonder where the hot connection is coming from for the pump suction???
