check out this beauty
 
I bought a tile cutter like that a few years ago. Every tile was wonky. Took the cheap pos back
 
20161108_103831.jpg Took a double take when I walked in and saw this cistern feed arrangement and don`t get me started on the sani discharge pipe!

Had a problem at a site where they had limited roof space above a kitchen, canopy was too small and original inline extract fan wasn't up to the job. Replaced it with a biga$$ roof fan and got manufacturers to extend the canopy to where it should be. Sent testing bod down to check all is working proper like......

Testing bod: "I've got a problem with the kitchen canopy, the extract rate sucks."
Me: "Try testing it with the grease filters out"
Testing bod: "Why can I see roof timbers?"

Don't know what's worse, someone fitting an Ariston, or someone that couldn't be arsed to cut the flue.
 
Could have done with an Ariston flue kit
Then..
He's not got a gradual fall from boiler housing.
All condense must be weeping from flu outlet spigot

Hey! Perhaps he's undersized the boiler and now has to slap 18" of external insulation to get the house warm again! :D

Gravity solar pre-heat to cylinder feed cistern (lid removed for clarity). (No vent as such from solar, but very small low-power design, so no risk of boiling). Vent from DHW cylinder is 1/2" copper into side of cistern. Draw-off to cylinder is from the bottom (coldest part) of pre-warmed feed cistern. Ballcock is on far side so literally impossible to get access to replace washer. Plastic CWSC hung on wires through ceiling from scaffold poles above ceiling. Improvised overflow hopper made from washing-up bottle. This photo doesn't do the installation justice, but it's a start.

Guess the fact that you directed the photo my way means it is to do with macerators therefore I see six (?) individual discharge pipes where one would do. Unless there are other reasons that can`t be seen of course. :rolleyes:

6 mas yes
