2. Assembly: Align the flue sections accurately and secure them using the provided locking bands. This method guarantees a tight, leak-free connection that is crucial for maintaining the flue’s integrity.
3. Inspection: Once assembled, inspect the fitting carefully to ensure that all connections are secure and that the insulation is not compromised.
4. Professional Advice: If there is any uncertainty during the installation process, it is advisable to consult with a professional installer to assure that all safety standards and manufacturer guidelines are adhered to.
