Step 5: Apply Flashing to First Frame

Step-05.jpg

Align the flashing to the frame.
 

Start the taping process for the flashing.


Tape each corner as shown.
 

Apply tape to the centers of each end and side.
 

Position flutes to make sure a clear channel is maintained through the heating chamber.
Although this is not a necessary step it helps and prevents waste.
Flutes are just the cut off pieces (left over's) from the pieces cut to size.
 

Tape the flutes down.
 

Drill two to three holes in each piece.
 

Turn panel over and start riveting.
 

After all rivets have been inserted, turn panel over again to prepare for the foil.
