Don't you have any problems with sediment buildup in the drops when coming directly off the bottom? We have seen too many installations where this has occurred and we were called in to make repairs and told by the Owner to use return bends (armovers) and come off the top of the branch line fitting and never the bottom. The first preference is off the top of the branch, the second is off the side, and the last choice (resort) was off the bottom. It was always made clear to us that the bottom was only to be used if there was no way to use either of the first two preferences.
Just inquiring.
