For vertical Terminations - To locate the flue and

install the flue sections:
• Locate and mark the flue center point on the underside

of the roof, and drive a nail through the center point.

• Make the outline of the roof hole around the center point

nail.

• The size of the roof hole framing dimensions depend on

the pitch of the roof. There

MUST BE a 2.5 cm clearance

from the vertical flue pipe to combustible materials.

• Mark the roof hole accordingly.
• Cover the opening of the installed flue pipes.
• Cut and frame the roof hole.
• Use framing lumber the same size as the roof rafters

and install the frame securely. Flashing anchored to the

frame must withstand heavy winds.

• Continue to install concentric flue sections up through

the roof hole and up past the roof line until you reach

the appropriate distance above the roof.

To seal the roof hole, and to divert rain and snow from

the flue system:
• Attach a flashing to the roof using nails, and use a non-

hardening mastic around the edges of the flashing base

where it meets the roof.

• Attach a storm collar over the flashing joint to form a

water-tight seal. Place non-hardening mastic around the

joint, between the storm collar and the vertical pipe.

• Slide the termination cap over the end of the flue pipe

and snap into place.
