Specification FE-16

General

Note: All general instructions contained in the current JM Commercial/Industrial Roofing Systems Manual shall be considered part of this specification.

Flashing of roof penetration pan

Roof Penetration Pan: JM does not recommend the use of penetration pan details, and strongly urges the use of better, more maintenance-free details for flashing roof projections. JM also recognizes that, at times, a penetration pan detail may be the best or only alternative for a difficult flashing situation.

Prime all surfaces of the metal penetration pan and the penetration itself, that will come into contact with bituminous materials. Bring the felts of the membrane as close around the projection as possible. Set the flange of the penetration pan in a bed of Bestile Industrial Roof Cement and nail the flange to the wood nailers at 3" (76 mm) o.c. maximum. Strip in the flanges with two layers of GlasPly Premier or GlasPly IV set in Bestile Industrial Roof Cement. Prior to filling the penetration pan, fill any holes around the projection or the pan with pieces of insulation. The ideal depth of mastic in the penetration pan is 2" - 3" (51 mm - 76 mm). If the depth to be filled exceeds 3" (76 mm), put layer(s) of roof insulation into the pan. Fill the pan with Bestile Industrial Roof Cement. The Bestile Industrial Roof Cement should be "crowned" at the projection, so that it slopes away from the projection to the edge of the pan. Care should be taken to ensure that the Bestile Industrial Roof Cement is in full contact with the surfaces of both the projection and the pan.
