On a one pipe system I have a long 2 1/2 in. main that loops around in a crawl space and just before the last two vertical risers,it tees off into a 2 in. sub-main. By my calculations the volume of the 2 1/2 in. main is 2.39 cu. ft. and the 2 in. sub-main is .73 cu.ft. What would you say is necessary for good venting, both quantity and Brand of vent? Appreciate the help.

    Main vents - Gortons

    Mel:

    The best main vents are Gorton vents. Speak to Ken Kunz at Gorton. His number is (908) 276-1323. He can tell you size and how many main vents you need.
