Flashing. Using a Chase Top Flashing allows
for a lower prole for the chimney. The Chase
Top Flashing has an opening that is 3” larger
in diameter than the DuraTech Chimney. If the
Chase Top Flashing can t over your chase
enclosure as required (Fig.29) then install as
directed, or trim as needed. However, if the
Chase Top Flashing is smaller than your chase
enclosure, you will need to provide a galvanized
sheet capable of covering your chase and
overhanging the sides by 1/2 - 3/4 inch. Attach
the Chase Top Flashing to the galvanized sheet
using appropriate sheet metal screws and non-
hardening waterproof sealant. Use the Chase
Top Flashing Spacers to allow the proper air-gap
clearances on the galvanized sheet. The Chase
Top Flashing Spacers are available to insure
that the proper air-gap is maintained. Fig.29
displays how these air gaps are established using
the Spacers and Chase Top Flashing. Secure
