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 leak
-
age through the screw holes. A roof coating
must also be applied around the perimeter of
the flashing to provide a proper seal.
Storm Collar Installation (SC2-1)
Place storm collar over pipe and slide down
until it is snug against open edge of flashing
(see Figure 14). Apply waterproof caulk around
perimeter of collar to provide a proper seal.
