- Pre-Installation Checks: Clean all flue sections thoroughly to ensure that no debris interferes with the locking mechanism. A smooth, clean surface enhances the bond between sections.
- Professional Assistance: While installation can be a DIY project for experienced users, consulting or hiring a professional is recommended for those unfamiliar with flue systems. Standards and local regulations must be followed meticulously.
