Giải thích
An AAV must be installed in a ventilated, accessible location and rise at least 4 in above the horizontal branch drain it serves, and it can never be the sole vent for a building. It admits air to relieve negative pressure but seals against sewer gas escaping. At least one vent must still open to atmosphere for the overall system.
