When a fixture sits on a different floor than the pipes, the lines run up through the floor, and the penetrations need to be done right. The holes, the sealing, and the support matter.
The holes
The holes for the pipes are cut to size and placed where the framing allows, keeping the structure sound. mineral-rich water varies by region, and older neighborhoods still run on aging galvanized or copper lines In Pasadena, the holes are sealed and fire-blocked where required.
The sleeves
A sleeve around the pipe protects it and allows for movement, and the gap is sealed to stop drafts and pests.
The support
The pipes are supported where they come through the floor so they do not hang on the joint.
The finish
An escutcheon or a trim ring covers the opening on the visible side, and the penetration is finished cleanly.
