6. Remove nails from the shingles, above and to the sides |
of the chimney. Place the fl ashing over the air terminal and |
slide it underneath the sides and upper edge of the shingles. |
Ensure that the air terminal is properly centred within the flash- |
ing, giving a 3/4” margin all around. Fasten to the roof. Do NOT |
nail through the lower portion of the fl ashing. Make weather- |
tight by sealing with caulking. Where possible, cover the sides |
and top edges of the fl ashing with roofi ng material. |
7. Apply a heavy bead of waterproof caulking 2 inches |
above the fl ashing. Slide the storm collar around the air ter- |
minal connector and down to the caulking. Tighten to ensure |
that a |
collar is achieved. |
