INSTALLATION
VERTICAL TERMINATION (continued)
5. Slip the flashing over the Pipe Section(s) protruding through the roof. Secure the base of the
Flashing to the roof with roofing nails. Ensure the roofing materials overlap the top edge of
the Flashing as shown in Figure 12. Verify that you have at least the minimum clearance to
combustibles at the roof line.

6. Continue to add Pipe Sections until the height of the Vent Cap meets the minimum building
code requirements described in Figure 13. Note that for steep roof pitches, the vent height
must be increased. High wind conditions, nearby trees, adjoining roof lines, steep pitched
roofs, and other factors can result in poor draft, or down drafting. In these cases, increasing
the vent height may solve this problem.

7. Twist-lock the vent cap.
