FLASHING INSTALLATION (V6F-10DM OR V12F-10DM)
Determine the flashing to be used with the roof opening chart. Slide
flashing over pipe until base is flat against roof. Replace as many
Min.
shingles as needed to cover exposed area and flashing base. Secure
in position by nailing through shingles (see Figure 18). DO NOT NAIL
THROUGH FLASHING CONE.
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.
