Wall / Ceiling Thimble
Use a wall thimble when passing through an exterior
wall or ceiling. Typically the framing hole will be 10
1/2" x 10 1/2" but each thimble manufacturer may
vary. Installations in Canada require a wall thimble be
used but they are recommended for all installations.
All sealing and vapour barriers must comply with local
building codes.
Use a firestop when passing through interior joints of
subsequent floors.
