How is a watertight seal achieved?

What is the purpose of the insertion marks on the union bracket?

To indicate the correct gutter positioning, ensuring the seal maintains full contact as the gutter expands and contracts with temperature changes.

Troubleshooting

Gutter sections are leaking at the union.

Ensure the gutter sections are correctly positioned within the union bracket, following the insertion marks. Check that the seal is properly compressed and that there are no obstructions.
