What sealant should I use between AC gasket and roof?
I am installing a Penguin II low profile roof AC unit. What sealant do you recommend to fasten the gasket to the roof?

NOTHING!!
Clean roof area around opening, Clean A/C Unit pan where old gasket was.
Install new gasket and set A/C Unit.
Tighten the 4 hold down bolts finger tight in cross pattern.
Then slowly 'snug' them up until gasket has been compressed by half (1" thick compressed to 1/2")
DO NOT OVER TIGHTEN.........just hand snug (Can crush gasket, warp roof and/or A/C Pan and cause leaks)
