Core TradesCâu 141 / 700
The MOST reliable method to prevent backflow contamination of the potable water supply at a fixture is:
a.Installing a single check valve
b.Increasing the supply water pressure
c.Providing a physical air gap of adequate height above the fixture flood rim
d.Adding length to the supply pipe
Giải thích
A physical air gap (an unobstructed vertical space, typically at least twice the pipe diameter and not less than 1 inch, above the flood rim) cannot be defeated because there is no continuous path for backflow. Check valves are mechanical and can fail; higher pressure and longer pipe do nothing to stop back-siphonage.
