L. Install Vertical Termination Cap

•Locate and mark the flue center point on the underside of the roof, and drive a nail through the center point.

•Make the outline of the roof hole around the center point nail.

•The size of the roof hole framing dimensions depend on the pitch of the roof. There MUST BE a 1 in. (25.4 mm) clearance from the vertical flue pipe to combustible materials.

•Mark the roof hole accordingly.

•Cover the opening of the installed flue pipes.

•Cut and frame the roof hole.

•Use framing lumber the same size as the roof rafters and install the frame securely. Flashing anchored to the frame must withstand heavy winds.

•Continue to install concentric flue sections up through the roof hole and up past the roof line until you reach the appropriate distance above the roof.

•Attach the vertical termination cap by sliding the inner collar of the cap into the inner flue of the pipe section while placing the outer collar of the cap over the outer flue of the pipe section.

•Secure the cap by driving three self-tapping screws (supplied) through the pilot holes in the outer collar of the cap into the outer flue of the pipe (see Figure 10.23).
