Default dodgy plumbing?

Hi all,

I was up in the attic last night (as you do!) and I noticed that my rising
main was connected to my water tank by the plumber pushing the hydrodare
pipe 2' over the end of a 1/2' copper pipe. Is this proper/usual practice?

It is a 3 year old house with a good strong mains pressure - is there some
sort of compression fitting for this job? should I alert the 7 neighbours
that had the same plumber?

Thanks for any advice.

Derek.
