Thimble Wall Double B-Gas 4in
J**N
The hole is 4 -5/8"
I bought 2 of these wall thimbles for a dual tankless (EZTankless) water heater install. Why dual? Where I live, the water outta the tap is 42 degrees. You'll only get a 35 degree rise at best from one tankless, so you need to feed one into the other to get up to shower temperature of 105.The hole is 4 -5/8" (air-gap around that is 6-5/8"). I believe this is for clearance. You're just not going to get your 4" exhaust pipe "dead nuts on" lined up, so you need clearance. I just got some scrap metal vent material, and made some flanges. Cut a 6" circle, then cut a 4 -1/8" hole outta that, slide the flange up snug to the thimble, add 4 metal screws, put some of the supplied metal duct tape on for an air-tight fit - done! Flanges really should be supplied with this kit. If you don't have a pair of tin snips, and some scrap lying around, I've seen these for about $4 at the local hardware depot (but they are square, so you'll still need the tin snips if you want a professional looking install). You'll also need 1/2" sheet metal screws, and other 1" screws, or if your going up against drywall, maybe some drywall anchors etc. a power hand drill, and jig saw, etc.

Not as described OR Shipped incorrectly multiple times.
Product was not as described and shown. It’s not two interlocking pieces. It’s just one side. I ordered this and returned it as missing parts only to get the exact same thing as a replacement.
