The Pedestal Plus is a rooftop pipe mounting solution that features a white, UV-stable, reinforced PVC base made from 25 percent recycled material. It can accommodate several rooftop piping applications from ½ to 3 inches in diameter. It supports multiple pipes and up to 150 pounds. The Pedestal Plus incorporates a channel within the base of the product to capture the nut used to attach the piping to the base. This allows for a much more efficient means of installation, according to the company.
