To maintain a 1" clearance to pipe on a roof with
a pitch, a rectangular opening must be cut.
1. Determine the center point through which
pipe will penetrate roof.
2. Determine center point of roof. Pitch is the
distance the roof drops over a given span,
usually 12". A 6/12 pitch means that the
roof drops 6" for each 12" one measure
horizontally down from roof rafters.
3. Use roof opening chart (Figure 22) to
determine correct opening length and
ashing required.
4. Remove shingles around opening mea-
sured. Cut out this section.
5. Add next sections of pipe until end
penetrates roof line. Check to see that
proper clearances are maintained. Extend
chimney by adding sections of double wall
pipe until pipe is minimum of 30" above
highest point of roof cutout. Termination
and chimney must extend a minimum of
36" above highest point where it passes
through the roof (see 10-Foot Rule and
Figure 20, page 9.

Determine ashing to be used with roof open-
ing chart. Slide ashing over pipe until base
is at against roof. Replace as many shingles
as needed to cover exposed area and ashing
base. Secure in position by nailing through
shingles (see Figure 23). 

Place storm collar over pipe and slide down

ashing (see Figure 24). Apply waterproof
caulking to all seams and notches around
storm and also at base around shingles.
