just what I was thinking!
Indeed!!Is this an example of how never to do a gas installation?
Over long flexible rubber hose.
No security or support or strain relief for hose.
Unsupported gas tap.
Over large Bolivar clip not supporting pipe.
PTFE tape used on the outside of compression fittings threads, totally unnecessary.
Additional compression coupler doing nothing but introducing 2 extra leakage points.
More PTFE tape incorrectly used on compression elbow.
Bolivar pipe clip used on the nut of a compression fitting, inability to correctly tighten.
None approved packing used in oversize Bolivar pipe clip.
A very poor example for unskilled unapproved gas fitters to be exposed to.
Yeh! Verily. What a good idea.
