Step 1: Measure and Cut the Hole
On either 24" or 16" center construction, we recommend cutting a 15" round hole between the raft ers. We recommend installing
the SR1800 between the raft ers but if not possible it is OK to install the SR1800 over a raft er.
Measuring the hole
Step 2: Insert the Flashing
Once the hole as been made, trim away shingles as needed to accommodate the metal base ashing so that you have a clean and
tight fi t. Normally, if you cut a clean 15" hole, we recommend trimming away from the top rows of shingles an additional 1" (one
inch) to allow the base fl ashing to slip under the top row(s) of shingles and over the bottom row(s). Slip the fl at metal base under
the top rows of shingles and center the unit over the opening.
Before attempting to slide in the fl ashing, remove any roofi ng nails or other obstructions. Avoid scratching the powder-coating.

- Page 2 Step 3: Seal and Secure the Flashing Once the metal fl ashing is in place, gently lift the lower exposed metal base fl ashing and apply sealant (caulk) generously under the side and lower edges, but not so much that it oozes out. If sealant starts to ooze, just wipe off excess before it hardens. Th e bottom part of the fl ashing will be exposed and sits on top of the shingles.
