You'll typically need a wrench set, pipe cutters, a soldering kit (if using copper pipes), Teflon tape, and a level to ensure proper alignment.

How can I ensure that my plumbing connections are leak-proof?

Make sure to use Teflon tape on threaded connections, tighten fittings securely, and check for any signs of wear on seals and gaskets before installation.

What safety precautions should I take when making electrical connections to my boiler?

Always turn off the power at the circuit breaker before starting any electrical work, use insulated tools, and follow the manufacturer's wiring diagram closely to avoid errors.

How do I test if all connections to the boiler are secure?

After installation, turn on the water and power supply, and visually inspect all connections for leaks or loose fittings. You can also use a pressure gauge to test the system's pressure.
