FIGURE 1.27 Termination Cap
For Vertical Terminations - To locate the flue and
install the flue sections:
• Locate and mark the flue center point on the un-
derside 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 de-
pend on the pitch of the roof. There MUST BE a 1-
inch (25 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.

CAUTION: FOLLOW THE REQUIREMENTS OF
THE AGA GAS INSTALLATION CODE FOR

To seal the roof hole, and to divert rain and snow
from the flue system:
• Attach a flashing to the roof using nails, and use
a non-hardening mastic around the edges of the
flashing base where it meets the roof.
• Attach a storm collar over the flashing joint to form
a water-tight seal. Place non-hardening mastic
around the joint, between the storm collar and
the vertical pipe.
• Slide the termination cap over the end of the flue
pipe and rotate the pipe clockwise 1/4 turn.
