Plumbing drain vents equalize the pressure in drain piping in order to preserve trap seals on plumbing fixtures. Blocked or improperly sized vents can cause traps to dry allowing sewer gases to enter the building.

There are some rigid requirements regarding what can be a vent stack and how a plumbing tree must be organized. If you have any questions, refer to a building code manual or a qualified plumber.

Double-stack system in drainage?

A double stack system is where you have the main soil stack to carry away toilet waste (Generally). With a separate pipe taking waste water from a Shower/Bath/Basin to an outside gully leading to a sewage drain (maybe via guttering on your property). Not a common system on new builds but still found on pre 60's plumbing.
