CAUTION! Risk of Cuts, Abrasions or Flying Debris. Wear protective gloves and safety glasses during instal- lation. Sheet metal edges are sharp.

Connect both halves of the storm collar with two screws (see Figure 8.16).

Wrap the storm collar around the exposed pipe section closest to the roof and align brackets. Insert a bolt (provided) through the brackets and tighten the nut to complete the storm collar assembly. Make sure the collar is tight against the pipe section.

Slide the assembled storm collar down the pipe section until it rests on the roof flashing (see Figure 8.17).

Caulk around the top of the storm collar (see Figure 8.23).
