FLASHING INSTALLATION (v6F-10DM

OR v12F-10DM)

Determine the flashing to be used with the roof

opening chart. Slide flashing over pipe until

base is flat against roof. Replace as many

shingles as needed to cover exposed area

and flashing base. Secure in position by nail-

ing through shingles (see Figure 16). DO NOT

NAIL THROUGH FLASHING CONE.
Installing Flashing on a Metal Roof

When installing the flashing on a metal roof,

it is required that putty tape be used between

the flashing and the roof. The flashing must be

secured to the roof using #8 x 3/4" screws and

then sealed with roof coating to prevent leak-

age through the screw holes. A roof coating

must also be applied around the perimeter of

the flashing to provide a proper seal.

Storm Collar Installation (SC2-1)

Place storm collar over pipe and slide down

until it is snug against the open edge of the

flashing (see Figure 17). Apply waterproof

caulk around the perimeter of the collar to

provide a proper seal.
