A:  Is it suitable for through the wall (block + brick) 4" bathroom vent fan? I would like to connect 3 with Y fittings, 1 wall opening. I guess all would need backdraft dampers.

A:  Pipe commonly known as "sewer and drain" or sewer pipe, also known as SDR35 and by various other pipe standards. I've found you have to have a conversation with your local supplier to establish that you're buying the right pipe as nobody seems to agree on exactly what to call it. You might start with "the stuff that isn't schedule 40 but also isn't the really cheap corrugated stuff, often used for septic systems".

A:  Theodore, use with the 4" Sewer Drain (S&D) pipe. Its about 1/3 the cost of schedule 40. Use for outside drainage, not plumbing.

A:  No it doesnt meet code for plumbing in your home drain lines.

A:  It works for through the wall installation. The best however is the concentric vent kits. I use one on my downstairs furnace and it supplies fresh combustion air along with exhaust fumes. The exhaust has a pipe in the middle going past the outside and the inside area outside is for fresh air. I also put a bird screen over mine.
