Figure 13 - Flashing Installation

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 leakage 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 open edge of flashing (see Figure 14). Apply waterproof caulk around perimeter of collar to provide a proper seal.

Chase installations

Instructions for chase installations are included with the chase style termination chosen. In a multiple chase installation, be sure to provide adequate distance between terminations to prevent smoke spillage from one termination to another. Terminations must be separated a minimum of 24" center to center and stacked at a minimum vertical height difference of 18" (see Figure 16, page 10).

Note: If a decorative shroud is to be installed, contact the manufacturer for specifications.
