below the roof surface. Apply roofing manufacturer approve sealant to the
underside of the sub-flashing in the shape of an upside down U. Clear away any
dust and debris to install sub-flashing. Waterproof at under laminate level
according to roofing manufacturer instructions and Tile Roofing Institute
Guidelines. Under the top layer of felt, secure the sub-flashing with two
roofing nails. Cut EPDM collar to appropriate size. Apply a bead of sealant
compatible with the roofing manufacturer and EPDM rubber to anywhere the EPDM
collar contacts. With a diamond blade cut tile to allow conduit to pass
through, replace all tiles. Bend the flashing to follow the contour of the
tiles. Place flashing over the conduit and tuck up under the next course of
tiles. Apply a bead of sealant compatible with the roofing manufacturer and
EPDM rubber to anywhere the EPDM collar contacts. Slide collar onto conduit
all the way down to the flashing.
