The 135 rule generally refers to a plumbing fitting guideline used to maintain smoother directional flow by using combinations of 45-degree bends instead of sharp 90-degree turns in certain drainage layouts. It is a field concept, not a reinsurance rule. For service agreement programs, the more relevant issue is making sure covered work, exclusions, and labor warranty terms are clearly documented and consistently administered.
