I used a URO expandable pipe. No issues at all and passed the pressure test. They have great customer service as well. AGA is a different design and is good as well. It is a job to be careful with and follow directions. It's not rocket science.

Just make sure they do a really good job of getting the front gasket surface clean. It is hard to see and it can have a lot of corrosion, gasket material, etc left over in it that can cause it to fail in the future.

For sure. I used a gasket hook tool, wire brush, tooth brush, brake cleaner then distilled water. Hard to get 100%. Mirror is a must for the job.
