Flashing installation (v6f-8dm or v12f-8dm)

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 nailing through shingles (see Figure 13). DO NOT NAIL THROUGH FLASHING CONE.

Installing Flashing on a Metal Roof When installing flashing on a metal roof, it is required that putty tape be used between the flashing and 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 screw holes.Aroof coating must also be applied around perimeter of flashing to provide a proper seal.
