I'm getting ready to add pvc supports to my build to keep the weight of the plumbing from putting pressure on the bulkheads. Here are my questions
1. Should the pvc be "level" horizontally and vertically? A few of my pieces aren't. If they're not, should I make them level with the supports? I don't want to put pressure on the pvc or joints.
2. Should the supports simply hold the plumbing in place? Should I attach supports to keep it where it would naturally hang?
 
That's what I thought. Thanks!
 
I supported mine under a fitting. I just ran the plumbing as needed, pulled the weight off of it, and added the support piece there.
 
Done! I attached the supports without moving the pipe.
