Locating and Cutting Roof Jack Opening

To facilitate the proper installation of the roof jack, it is very
important that the roof jack opening in the ceiling and roof
be on the same vertical center line as the furnace flue collar.
See Figure 7.
The dimensions shown in Figure 7 may be used if the fur-
nace is flush with the walls or adjusted to allow for any spac-
ing away from either wall.
Mark this location on ceiling and scribe a circle with a 5" ra-
dius (10" diameter) around this mark. Cut opening for roof
jack through ceiling and roof. (If furnace was installed
during construction, cover furnace and flue opening to
prevent debris from entering flue and combustion air
when hole is cut for roof jack.)

lar. Caulk completely around the underside of the roof jack
flashing to provide a rain tight seal, before securing roof
jack flashing to roof. After roof jack flashing has been
secured to the roof, caulk carefully all around swivel joint
