Hi
Just had a new boiler installed with a supplementary expansion vessel. The installer has fitted the expansion vessel horizontally rather than vertically. I don't think this is good practice. I presume the flexible hose wasn't long enough, I've contacted Zilmet to see if the warranty is voided with horizontal installation. Is it worth getting installer back to fit vertically or is the install OK. I also noticed that it transitions to plastic pipe within 1m of boiler which doesn't comply with Ideal vogue installation instructions. The system plastic pipe was like this prior to the new boiler but was hoping the installer would have rectified during the install of the new boiler. Any advice much appreciated.
