Your verbs are wrong, they should be Could be instead of Should be. The slopes are not the requirement, they are the least that is allowed. Almost anything greater than that up to vertical is usually okay. : What is the correct slop for 4 inch drain pipe? I have read in some places that drain pipe should : slope at 1/4 inch per foot but if the pipe is 3 inch or greater it should be 1/8 inch per foot. Should : it be 1/4 inch or 1/8 inch or does it matter?
