Secure the Vent Sections
Vertical sections of pipe must be supported every 8 ft after
the 25 ft maximum unsupported rise. The vent support or
plumber’s strap (spaced 120° apart) may be used to do this
(see Figures 8.8 and 8.9).
Horizontal sections of vent must be supported every 5 ft with
a vent support or plumber’s strap.
B. Disassemble Vent Sections
To disassemble any two pieces of pipe, rotate either section
(see Figure 8.10), so that the seams on both pipe sections
are aligned (see Figure 8.11). They can then be carefully
pulled apart.
