Thanks to NACHI member John Edwards for today’s question


Please do not post the answers until after the QOD for the next day has been posted. I agree that comments and discussions are very good on the QODs, but please give everyone a chance to answer the poll first

Mike is correct … 1/4" per foot min for drain pipe 2-1/2" or smaller, and 1/8" per foot min for drain pipe 3" or larger (IRC P3005.3 and Table P3005.4.2) … icon_wink.gif


P.S. That would be "code minimum", and the 1/4" to 1/2" probably would be a better "recommended" slope ...
