Abstract
An apparatus, system and method of installation of a pipe in fixed association with at least one stanchion, said stanchion having a pipe mount for fixing the distance from a pipe inserted into the pipe mount to a mounting surface, and when two or more stanchions and associated pipe mounts are used to insert a pipe, the distance between the pipe mounts and the mounting surface create a pitch of the pipe in the direction of the sink and away from the source of a liquid insures the proper rate of gravitational flow of the liquid therein.
Claims6
An apparatus for constructing a piping system comprising:
- a least one vertical stanchion, the stanchion including three parallel vertical beams, a center beam for guiding the pipe holder mount, and two outer beams, one on each side of the center beam, said stanchion having affixed thereto a vertically adjustable pipe mount secured to the stanchion via a spring loaded U-channel inserted into the spaces between the two outer beams and the central beam via a tab and a set of intermeshing teeth on said U-channel and at one end of the stanchion having a foot for mounting to a plane surface in order to secure a pipe affixed to the pipe mount at a fixed dimension between the pipe mount and the plane surface and a slot for mounting at the opposite end of the stanchion an additional stanchion to extend the vertical height of the apparatus.
