Default TPR Valve

I'm just going through some old pictures and thought I'd share with you all. Thoughts, feedback, interesting theories is what I'm looking for.

Thanks in advance everyone!

Pretty well self-explanatory, if you ask me.

A few comments about these:
#1. How do you word your comments?
#2. I see a lot of these. I usually put something like "Shower set up may be detrimental to floor joists and sub-floor above. Proper shower ceiling with fan/ventilation recommended to protect wood above"...or something like that.
#3. The safety TPR valve will work properly....just not the preferred installation.
#4. Unidentified. I took this a few years ago and don't exactly remember the rest of the set-up, I believe this was connected the hot water heating system in a house around 80-90 years old.
