vent out of plumb

[Ken Meyer]

This vent is coming out at an odd angle, but I couldn't find anything specifically addressing vents out of plumb in Code Check. What are the implications of an out of plumb vent, if any?

I'm not aware of any requirement that they be plumb. As long as they drain rainwater & condensation, I don't see a problem.

Well, except that it looks stupid.

Thank you.

Only thing I could think of would be the extra stretch in portions of the sealing boot. They deteriorate and split here all the time without the undue stress.

As a former builder, it looks very unprofessional
