I have a sump pipe that I am going to pipe into a barrel. I am adding
probably 15' more pipe. I don't want the pipes to sit with water in them,
though that does not seem to be a problem for the piping in the basement.
Anyway, I am trying to vent this pipe as soon as it reaches peak hight so
I can ensure as much of the PVC remains empty outside of the house as I
can.

So far my only solution is a studor vent. Anyone know of a better idea?
I will have to make the vent screwable too because I need to snake my
pipes about once per year...
