G e ne ra I Sp e cili cati o ns
An air admittance valve shall be acceptable as a vent termination
f or any individual vent, common vent, circuit vent, l00p vent,
island fixture vent, vent stack or stack vent that ls provided to
prevent siphonage of a fixture trap. An air admittance valve is
used as an alternative to secondary venting through the roof open
to atmosphere.
The purpose of an air admittance valve is to provide a method of
allowing air to enter the plumbing drainage system without the use
0f a venl extended to open air and to prevent sewer gases from
escaping into a building. An air admittance valve is a one way valve
designed to allow air to enter the plumbing drainage system when
negative pressures develop in the piping system. The device shall
close by gravity and seal the vent terminal at zero differential
pressure (no flow conditions) and under positive internal pressures.
