Helping behavior refers to voluntary actions intended to help the others, with reward regarded or disregarded. It is a type of prosocial behavior (voluntary action intended to help or benefit another individual or group of individuals, such as sharing, comforting, rescuing and helping).
Altruism is distinguished from helping behavior. Altruism refers to prosocial behaviors that are carried out without expectation of obtaining external reward (concrete reward or social reward) or internal reward (self-reward). An example of altruism would be anonymously donating to charity.

    As you've been so helpful already..

    I'm being lazy as I'm sure MIs tell me somewhere. Doing an install with an unvented cylinder (not a problem in itself) they also want a water softner, is it able to go through the softner before getting to the multi function valve or will it reduce the flow and pressure down too much?
