Abstract: A drainfield pipe support device includes a pair of elongated anchor members generally parallel to each other and separated for receiving drainfield pipe sections therebetween. The elongated anchor members penetrate a grade surface for holding the anchor members upright while supporting the pipe section within a clamp above the grade surface. The clamp is pivotally attached to the anchor member upper portion and holds a rib extending radially from the pipe section between jaws of the clamp for holding the pipe section from an upper portion of the pipe section. The device and method for installing drainfield pipe sections by supporting such sections from a pipe section top portion permits the sections to be held at desired positions for introduction of aggregate into an absorption area containing the drainfield pipe sections without displacing the sections from their desired location.
