The flow is straight out of the stove for about a foot and then straight up to indirect hot cylinder with a quick return coil....will change the stat thanks.

Neighbour did the plumbing - retired pro.....so maybe a bit old school with the brass compression joints.

I am old school, but never would use compression where I don't have to. Soldered is cheaper and better.
But nothing that says you can't use compression though.
Injector tee in compression is handy.
I prefer to use a bending machine on all bends especially on gravity pipes.
Used to be you could buy standard soldered copper elbows that had a nice swept bend, but sadly cost cutting means you now get bare minimum tight bends.

I agree I fitted a neutralizer a couple of years ago in a tight spot but I was concerned about the gravity movement. It all worked out spot on but I had my worries as to weather it would work

Yes, usually unavoidable using soldered 28mm elbows on the neutralisers and sometimes also male bends in tight spots.
What you have to be careful with also is the coil on cylinder if too flat will cause the hot water to not heat well with neutralisers systems especially.
All you can do with some systems is use a bender on all possible gravity pipework to reduce restriction as much as possible.
