D. Installing Roof Flashing and
Vertical Termination Cap
To install roof
fl
ashing see Figure 8.16.
For installation of vertical termination cap see minimum vent
heights for various pitched roofs (see Figure 8.16) .
Caulk the gap between the roof
fl
ashing and the outside
diameter of the pipe. Also caulk the perimeter of
fl
ashing
that contacts roof surface as shown in Figure 8.18.
To attach the vertical termination cap, slide the inner col-
lar of the cap into the inner
fl
ue of the pipe section and
place the outer collar of the cap over the outer
fl
ue of the
pipe section.
Secure with three screws into the outer
fl
ue. Secure the cap
by driving the three self-tapping screws (supplied) through
the pilot holes in the outer collar of the cap into the outer
fl
ue of the pipe (see Figure 8.17).
