Step 7. Secure flashing by nailing along the
perimeter into roof using 8d nails. If shingled
roof, slide upper end and sides of roof flash-
ing under shingles (trim if necessary), seal
the top and both sides of the flashing to the
roof with roof caulking. Cover nail heads with
roof caulking ( see Figure 26 ).

Step 8. The standard Security FTF8 roof flash-
ing assemblies include a storm collar. Slide
the storm collar over outer chimney, rest on
flashing spacers and align with top surface of
flashing. Insert tab in slot, pull tight and bend
tab back over slot. Seal storm collar to outer
chimney with roof caulking or mastic around
entire circumference of pipe. Also add extra
roof caulking to the tab/slot area to seal com-
pletely against water penetration ( Figure 27 ).
Check all joints very carefully to ensure no
water intrusion can take place.

Step 9. Security Chimneys locking bands,
Model FLB, may be required if the chimney
extends too high above the roof flashing. As a
general rule, if the chimney extends more than
6' above the roof flashing, the use of locking
bands is advisable to strengthen the chimney
assembly. Align the locking band at the chim-
ney joint. Locking bands wrap around pipe
joints equally covering the joints of both pipe
sections. Use the nut provided and TIGHTEN
snugly. Do not overtighten as this might dam-
age the chimney section ( refer to Figure 27 ).
Note: If chimney extends more than 8' above
roof surface, guy wires are also recommended.
Use three (3) guy wires, attach to locking band
assembly, extend and secure to roof in a trian-
gular pattern (see Figure 28 ). Guy wires are not
supplied by the manufacturer.
