I'm planning on flashing the bottom of the foot with urethane sealant,
then screwing down to the roof. After that, counter-flash with a ITW
metal roof flashing boot glued down only with a sealant (doesn't make
sense to add more holes to flash). I'm considering adding a weep hole

Troy:
How are you planning on attaching the rubber boot to the roof sheeting? If
you attach with sheet metal screws, won't your screws penetrate into the
sheeting and trap the metal in place? If you glue it, you are dependant on
the glue. I see the overall concept, but don't see how to atta
Hi Troy,
I don't know what to tell you, pretty scary to me to cut a big hole in
the metal roof.
I'm curious about any links you have to those mounting systems?
thanks,

You don't screw the roofing pans down through the pan, they are all
held down with some kind of clip system; there are no roof
penetrations, as the hold down screws are under the roofing.
I'm not talking about seam clamps at all. But using a boot flashed

I'm not talking about seam clamps (i.e. S5!), but rather the problem
of screwing or bolting through the roof causing problems with thermal
expansion. Arguably, clamping to the seams would cause less thermal
expansion problems, since screwing through a panel in the middle of
the roof could c
Troy,
It is my current understanding that some manufacturers of metal roofing
will not warranty their products if clamps are used on the standing
seams. The reason given is that clamping the seams prevents the normal
movement of the roofing during expansion and contraction. I can't say

I was wondering what issues people have had screwing/bolting mounting
feet to a metal roof with thermal expansion.
I was looking at a european roof mounting foot and noticed they cut a
hole in the metal roof, and screw the foot to the sheathing using a
rubber gasket to make a water tight se
