Scot, What do you interpret the last part of that section to mean? ‘The placement of a panel over a vent pipe… shall provide for an open area for the vent pipe to the outdoors that is not less than the area of the pipe…’
Is that saying if you have 2” PVC you need your panel 2” above the top of the pipe? Thanks for bringing this up.

Fasten correctly to the rafters, sealing both old and new. If you want to do this on the roof under the modules same rules apply.

Now I find one that is just in the way. My foreman suggests we 90 it out of the way, and makes the point that there are vent 90s in the walls all the time. Is there any concern about this practice?
