WALL THIMBLE AND VENT

MUST NOT PROTRUDE

BEYOND SIDING

Wall thimble:

Where a vent pipe passes through a combustible wall, a wall thimble/shield must be used to retain insulation and maintain proper clearances. The wall thimble may be cut to length for various wall thicknesses up to 12" thick.

Measure the wall thickness including the siding. Trim the shield to match the wall thickness. Position the wall thimble from inside through the 14-1/2" opening. Properly adjusted, the thimble should be fl ush with the outer wall surface.
