I'm cleaning up some carpentry my bankrupt furnace installer did two years ago.

What are you folks using to finish off 4" PVC pipes through walls/ceilings? Any PVC pipe escutcheons?

I found this but dont need 12.

Was hoping for something that might be at my local HVAC/plumber supply house.

I think you have answered your own question, check with you local supply house, you know what you are looking for.

except two of the places I've been to so far didnt have any idea so I didnt even know if such a thing existed.

Finish off drywall to within 3/8th of an inch of pipe and seal with a flexible caulk. You need to leave room for thermal expansion.

this is through wood, not drywall.

I made some escutcheons for some 4-inch PVC pipe one time out of white frisbees that I bought at the Dollar Store!
