Flexible House Guidance Please

[MortarThePoint]

I know flexible hoses are a regular failure point and I wouldn't look to do this upstream of a tap, but does the arrangement below look OK. It's between two deck taps and the filler so should never see significant pressure and isn't pressurised when the taps are closed. I'm planning to pop Bonfix compression fitting inserts with o-rings into the compression / BSP tee (15 x 15 x 1/2). Only mocked up at this point.

 

 

For permanently pressurised flexible connections, I like the RigidLine range:

This is an entirely different thread to the one I was expecting! I thought it was about building in earthquake zones! (Flexible House Guidance Please)

Yup. All looks good, but make sure in the ends of the flexis, there is sometimes a brass ring in the middle that protrudes further out than the rubber seal when it’s been tightened up. 
 

If the rubber is totally flat face then all good
