When installing the ashing on a metal roof, it is
required that putty tape be used between the ash-
ing and the roof. The ashing must be secured to
the roof using #8 x 3/4" screws and then sealed
with roof coating to prevent leakage through the
screw holes. A roof coating must also be applied
around the perimeter of the ashing to provide a
proper seal.
