Open in Field Rescue Open Category

What to Check First

Confirm approved roof penetration or curb detail
Identify membrane/roof system and roofer scope
Verify opening dimensions and structural framing
Plan temporary weather protection and debris control
Confirm final flashing/counterflashing sequence and inspection hold points

Ask Foreman

Before we cut or set this curb, has roofing approved the detail, opening, temporary dry-in, and final flashing sequence?

Do Not Do This

Do not cut the roof or apply random sealant/flashing materials without roofing and project approval.

Why This Matters

A technically correct duct opening can still create a roof leak or void the roof warranty.

Verify against: roofing details/spec, curb/equipment submittal, structural opening approval, roofer/foreman direction.
