Installation Guidelines and Best Practices
Pre-Installation
Before beginning the installation process, review the flue system layout carefully. Verify that the installation site offers the required 50mm clearance from any combustible materials. Check that all additional accessories, such as jointing gaskets for P1 and H1 applications, are at hand.
During Installation

- Connection: Use the push-fit jointing system, securing components with Locking Bands for a robust connection. Additional sealing with jointing gaskets for specific installations (P1 and H1) will offer further protection against leaks.
- Inspection: After connecting the components, perform a thorough inspection to ensure that all connections are secure and that the drainage pathway is unobstructed.
- Safety: Always adhere to manufacturer guidelines and local building regulations. Confirm that the installation respects the minimum distance requirements from any combustible materials.
Post-Installation
Once the system is fully assembled, run a series of tests to confirm that drainage functions seamlessly. It is also advisable to maintain periodic checks, especially during the initial period after installation, to verify that components remain secure and effective.
