# Delete Hangers
There are 4 different **delete commands** in the MEP Hangers ribbon. The most recently used one will always appear at the top and the others can be accessed through a drop-down.
Delete commands work on both **native Revit MEP elements** (Ducts, Pipes, Cable Trays, Conduits) and **MEP Fabrication Parts**.
Hangers on different categories of MEP elements can be deleted at once.
### Delete All
This command deletes all hangers (whether **inserted manually** or automatically **using MEP Hangers**) from the selected MEP elements.
A manually inserted hanger is one that has been copied using Revitʼs '**Copy**' command.
### Delete Elements
'Delete Elements' works the same as 'Delete All' except that it **leaves the manually inserted hangers**.
### Delete Selected
This command, unlike the previous ones, should be used by selecting hangers (not the MEP elements). It will delete all hangers inserted with the same configuration (or the same Rule if multiple Rules are used inside the configuration) from the selected hangersʼ hosts.
### Delete w/o Host
All hanger families are created as face-based elements and when inserted with MEP Hangers they are hosted onto the MEP elements (Ducts, Pipes, Cable Trays, Conduits). If the host MEP elements get deleted, hosted elements stay in the project but they become orphaned (without a host).
'**Delete w/o Host**' removes all hangers or supports in the project that have lost their host elements.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.
Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:
```
GET https://docs.besmart.software/3d-modeling-and-design/mep-hangers/commands/delete-hangers.md?ask=&goal=
```
`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.
The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.
Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
