Flashing for metal roof | Ask The Experts Forum

Guest User 1/8/2008	We have a corrugated metal roof & I need info on installation of a double wall flue with rubber boot flashing, on a 4/12 pitch. I have a dektite boot but am considering a selkirk boot flashing kit. Question is, do I need the kit or just a boot?	Share Or copy this URL: https://www.metalroofing.com/spirit/comment/10763/find/
Ken Buchinger NCI Building Systems, Inc. 1/9/2008	Silicone rubber roof jacks have a temperature rating of 400 degrees. Attached is a picture of one installed on a metal roof. It is installed on a "pipe curb" because its diameter would have blocked the water flow down the panel. Notice the stainless steel band around the top to prevent water infiltration due to snow accumulation.	Share Or copy this URL: https://www.metalroofing.com/spirit/comment/10764/find/
Guest User 1/12/2008	Thanks for the picture. Contractor installed a rubber boot with flexible metal flashing and sealed with silicone. They said that should do the job.	Share Or copy this URL: https://www.metalroofing.com/spirit/comment/10765/find/

Guest User 1/28/2008	I have a metal roof that I am trying to install a 6 inch wood stove chimney through the pitch is 8/12. I have the flashing for it but, I am not sure how I should do it. Should it be put underneath the roof at the top and then screwed down with a silicone sealer? Or can I just set on top of the roof with sealer and screws? The picture you are showing goes under right? Thanks in advance Dave	Share Or copy this URL: https://www.metalroofing.com/spirit/comment/10767/find/
Todd Miller Isaiah Industries, Inc. 2/2/2008	Yes, his picture does show it going under the roof on the uphill side. That is generally the best way to do things.	Share Or copy this URL: https://www.metalroofing.com/spirit/comment/10768/find/
Guest User 7/27/2010	Nice picture, better than 1000 words for sure :) Are those rivets or metal screws ? What kind of fastener should be used in this case ?	Share Or copy this URL: https://www.metalroofing.com/spirit/comment/10769/find/
Todd Miller Isaiah Industries, Inc. 8/1/2010	Those are screws. A gasketed screw would be best.	Share Or copy this URL: https://www.metalroofing.com/spirit/comment/10770/find/
Guest User 8/14/2010	As far as chimneys (type A) and gas flues (type B) go - MasterFlash flashings are rated for type B, but is it ok to use them with wood stove chimneys which are class A ?	Share Or copy this URL: https://www.metalroofing.com/spirit/comment/10771/find/
