Good morning

I installed a Harvey’s water softener recently. Have a semi detached property with 3 showers and a 2 toilets with a mega flow cylinder

25mm mains pipe work with 22mm onwards. I put the softener before the prv which was pre installed with the unvented cylinder as the rep said they can handle upto 8 bar. Also put a tee for hard water line to the kitchen on 15mm Jg push fit reducing to 3/8 for kitchen drinking tap

My question is does the the prv need to be moved down before the water softner and tee for hard water feed. Also the compression joints on manifold leaking, tried tightening but stilll leak. Should I put ptfe on olive please ?
 
Any pictures of how you’ve installed it ?
