Masonry unit wall pipe support system

1. A masonry unit wall pipe support system for supporting one or more pipes within a masonry unit wall, the system comprising a compressible support structure containing one or more holes for one or more pipes, the compressible support structure being compressively inserted into a hollow core cavity of a masonry unit to provide a friction fit of the support structure within the hollow core cavity to create a relatively immovable support for the one or more pipes extending through the one or more holes in the support structure, and the one or more pipes having a friction fit in the one or more holes in the support structure to create a relatively immovable support for the one or more pipes, wherein the one or more holes has a smaller diameter than the one or more pipes extending through the respective one or more holes to provide the friction fit of the one or more pipes in the respective one or more holes.

2. The system of claim 1 wherein the support structure is made of a compressible polymeric material.

3. The system of claim 1 wherein the support structure compressively engages both an inner wall of the hollow core cavity in which the support structure is compressively inserted and an outer diameter of the one or more pipes extending through the one or more holes in the support structure.

4. A masonry unit wall pipe support system for supporting one or more pipes within a masonry unit wall, the system comprising a compressible support structure containing one or more holes for one or more pipes, the compressible support structure being compressively inserted into a hollow core cavity of a masonry unit to provide a friction fit of the support structure within the hollow core cavity to create a relatively immovable support for the one or more pipes extending through the one or more holes in the support structure, and the one or more pipes having a friction fit in the one or more holes in the support structure to create a relatively immovable support for the one or more pipes, wherein the masonry wall is comprised of a plurality of masonry units, at least some of the masonry units have compressible support structures compressively inserted into hollow core cavities of the respective masonry units, the support structures of some of the masonry units contain holes having a friction fit with larger diameter pipes than the holes through which the pipes extend, and the holes of the support structures of some of the masonry units have a different diameter than the holes in the support structures of other of the masonry units in which different diameter pipes are frictionally fitted.

5. The system of claim 4 wherein at least some of the pipes are different diameter plumbing pipes.

6. The system of claim 1 wherein the masonry wall is comprised of a plurality of masonry units, at least some of the masonry units have compressible support structures compressively inserted into hollow core cavities of the respective masonry units, at least some of the support structures contain at least one hole having a friction fit with at least one pipe extending through the at least one hole, and at least some of the holes in the support structures of some of the masonry units are at different locations than the holes in the support structures of other of the masonry units.

7. The system of claim 1 wherein the support structure has opposite ends, one of the ends being a wider end and the other end being a narrower end, and opposite sides each having side portions that taper inwardly from the wider end to the narrower end.

8. The system of claim 7 wherein the support structure has radiused corners at opposite ends.

9. The system of claim 8 wherein the radiused corners at the wider end have a smaller radius than the radiused corners at the narrower end.

10. A method of supporting one or more pipes within a masonry unit wall, the method comprising forming one or more holes through a compressible support structure, compressively inserting the compressible support structure into a hollow core cavity of a masonry unit to provide a friction fit of the support structure within the hollow core cavity, and inserting one or more pipes through the one or more holes, wherein the one or more holes that are formed in the support structure have a smaller diameter than the one or more pipes that are inserted through the respective one or more holes to provide a friction fit of the one or more pipes in the respective one or more holes.

11. The method of claim 10 wherein the support structure compressively engages both an inner wall of the hollow core cavity in which the support structure is compressively inserted and an outer diameter of the one or more pipes extending through the respective one or more holes in the support structure.

12. The method of claim 10 wherein the masonry unit wall is comprised of a plurality of masonry units, further comprising compressively inserting compressible support structures into hollow core cavities of at least some of the masonry units, forming one or more holes in the support structures of at least some of the masonry units, and inserting pipes through the holes in the support structures of at least some of the masonry units, the holes having a smaller diameter than the pipes that are inserted through the respective holes to provide a friction fit of the pipes in the respective holes.

13. The method of claim 12 wherein the holes that are formed in the support structures of some of the masonry units have a different diameter than the holes that are formed in the support structures of other of the masonry units in which pipes of a larger diameter than the respective holes are frictionally inserted.

14. The method of claim 10 wherein the masonry wall is comprised of a plurality of masonry units, further comprising forming at least some holes at different locations in the support structures of different ones of the masonry units, and inserting the same or different pipes through the holes in the support structures of different ones of the masonry units, the holes having smaller diameters than the pipes that are inserted through the respective holes to provide a friction fit of the pipes within the respective holes.

15. The method of claim 14 wherein the pipes are plumbing pipes.
