    If a home is air sealed and the dehumidifier and A/C create a negative pressure in the home would an AAV still function appropriately?

    We have a clogged underneath our kitchen sink and I noticed that whenever I would put the baking soda and vinegar down the drain that it would begin to overflow out of the air admittance valve whenever I wouldn't screw it. Does this mean that the spring feature on the air admittance valve has failed?

      Hi. Did you figure out if the in-line vent needed to be replaced to be unclog?
      Or was it something else the issue?
      Thanks

    How do you reconcile six inches above the trap arm with six inches about the flood rim as required by code?

  • @wiley0714
    @wiley0714 3 роки тому +2

    Seems more to me that the problem is that there’s no slope after the P-trap like there should be. Outside of that their admin spouse can fail, so putting a closed loop in under the sink would be a better option. As well as mounting the dishwasher hose high up so after the pressure pumps out from the dishwasher, the discharge has no choice but to run downhill.

    Are these traps supposed to be tight or kinda loose? I keep getting air build up and it blows the pipe off

      traps? These are supposed to be air tight and should blow of the pipe maybe a fitting is missing glue?

    Incorrectly stated by the Pro: That is how "you" install an air admittance valve. Correctly stated by me: That is how "you" install an air admittance valve. All day job for me including several looks at UA-cam and two or three visits to the big box. Thanks for the video.

    Doesn’t it bother you that the purple primer is all over the pipework? I know its under the sink an all…but still…

      Yeah, they make clear glue and primer for this reason

    • @4tarsus
      @4tarsus 2 роки тому +4

      Purple color is to make it easy to confirm that primer was actually used. The more the merrier ... within reason.

      Your required to use purple primer, its purple so the inspector knows you actually primered the fitting.

    Air admittance valve 😂. That’s a mechanical check vent and is illegal in some jurisdictions. Check your plumbing code.

      Because for one they need to be 4 to 6 inches above the sink for most codes that allow them.
