Default Joining Sewer Vents

I don't think so. I'm not a plumber, but I see houses with 5 and 7 vent
pipes in the roof. If the builder could save roofer costs by having the
plumber joining all the vents (lesspenetratyions to seal), I think they
would. Any plumbers out there...agree, disagree?

Hi all.

In the attic of my new house I have two PVC sewer vent pipes that come
up from the floorboards. One of them is run completely through the
roof. The other terminates about two feet up from the floor into the
attic. Would it be feasible for me to put an elbow onto this pipe,
extend it over and join it with the pipe that goes through the roof.
I would like to avoid putting another hole in my roof for obvious
reasons. I'm not sure about the codes in my area, but I imagine that
this would not be a problem. I would appreciate opinions.

Thanks,

Scott
