Selkirk thimble

[maloney964]

Hello,
We are installing a Selkirk thimble and need to know if we can put insulation around the perimeter of the pipe. We’re sending it through a window. Of course we’ve built the “wall” to fill in the empty space.
Thanks

Use the product and directed in the instructions. I believe it comes with and insulation gasket of the wall and another for around the chimney pipe.

Thanks but I guess I didn’t word the question correctly

Can you be more specific? Is this the Selkirk IWT or the 6T-IWT wall thimble? Are you asking if the wall insulation can touch the thimble? If the later, it should be ok if unfaced.

Yes Well said
Thanks it’s kind of what we figured but wanted to make sure.

I put rock wool between the skin of the double wall chimney pipe and the inner surface of the thimble.
