| ❌ Mistake | ✅ Correct Approach |
|---|---|
| Incorrect cleaning of pipe ends prior to joining, leading to weld defects or poor sealing. | Always degrease and remove any oxide layers from the pipe ends using appropriate solvents and abrasive materials before welding or connecting. |
| Over-stressing or misaligning pipe during installation, causing premature failure. | Implement proper pipe support and ensure gradual, precise alignment to avoid introducing undue stress into the system. |
