Is he going to verify that the wall system is capable of supporting the water filled pipe?
I would tell him that that he needs to provide a sealed drawing showing the details on size of wall bracket, mounting and fastening details, etc. since this will be a non-typical support. Then see what he says. He may say that's the contractor's responsibility but it's not the contractor's responsibility to do a structural/architectural analysis of the wall to determine if it will hold it up. What's his reasoning for the change? Craig L.

One of the items on there is to remove the hangers attached to the structure and provide wall mounted brackets. The pipe is 1ΒΌ" sch 40 and the wall is typical gypsum board and light gauge metal studs. I'm about to call and question him on this for the simple fact the pipe is currently hung properly. Looking for some more ammo - what say ye?
