I installed a power vent water heater. I vented it through the wall. The last thing I have to do is put on a flange/collar on the outside wall siding. I cannot find anything that will fit over a 2" PVC pipe. What am I missing here? What are these things called.

Thanks,

Tommy

Escutcheon perhaps?

Vinyl mounting block... I didn't see anything for 2" PVC. I'm guessing you'll need to drill it out yourself.

This is what's on mine, and the sealed furnace too for that matter. Intake and exhaust in one trim, though side-by-side PVC pipe, not coaxial metal.

All I've ever used is silicone. Cut a correct sized hole through the siding, slide the pipe in and silicone around it.

CUt the correct size hole, are you crazy???? Well actually, I would have loved if it worked out that way, but I was drilling through 13" of masonry and the vinyl siding took a hit on a cold day... need an escutcheon of some sort.

Thanks for the info guys.
