Interestingly.... "Buzz" can mean " a feeling of slight intoxication"
Ah, that explains everything.

 

[solarsavings]

Oh dear, lots of problems with that cylinder install. Still, probably paid peanuts for it.

emersion

Didn't he play with Lake & Palmer?

 

[solarsavings]

DPG,
Discharge pipework(D2), wrong material and arrangement doesn't comply with g3.
Control valve, incorrectly plumbed in and height will make future servicing difficult.
Lack of isolator/cylinder drain cock for future servicing.
No support for the pipework and expansion vessel(can only see one clip).
Pipework should be insulated(to hide the poor soldering) to comply with part L.
The rest is Buzz's problem now

 

[DPG]

Cheers solarsavings.
