| ❌ Mistake | ✅ Correct Approach |
|---|---|
| Using improper welding techniques for aluminum, leading to porosity or lack of fusion. | Employ qualified welders experienced with Aluminum 6061 and follow recommended welding parameters and filler metal selection. |
| Neglecting to account for thermal expansion and contraction of aluminum in system design. | Incorporate expansion joints or flexible connectors in long pipe runs to accommodate temperature fluctuations. |
