Venting: Vent pipes play a crucial role in maintaining the integrity of the system. They prevent vacuum formation, which could lead to traps being siphoned, and allow sewer gases to escape safely above the roofline. If you use water from your city, a main water line also called a service line is installed in your front yard (underground) and enters the house through the basement (if you have one), garage or utility room.

Firstly, it must be emphasized that although, you may have all the necessary tools (which is highly unlikely, but not impossible), and think that it can’t hurt to try; we strongly advise that all of the reparations be done by a professional.

A more modern alternative solution to the pressure problem is to install an Air Admittance Valve instead of a vent pipe. Sometimes known as Durgo Valves, Air Admittance Valves (or AAV's for short) are essentially one-way valves that can be installed at the top of the soil pipe, or along a waste pipe run, to allow the free entry of air into the pipework system to balance out the pressure. The design of these valves is quite clever, as they only open when the siphoning pressure (the negative pressure caused when water flows into the pipes) builds up enough to require balancing, and only in a way that allows clean air to be drawn in without allowing foul air to escape. This is the crucial difference between the valve and the vent. What do you do if you have a clogged sewer line? That is where a sewer clean out, also known as a clean out plug comes in.

Before cutting vertical drainpipe, support it with riser clamps or 2x4s braced against a joint that is above the section to be removed. The virus can be spread through air contamination when sewage-polluted air from a sanitary fitting gets into other apartments through the same shared draining system. Indeed, drainage systems of a building must be equipped with appropriate traps, built with a specified depth of water seal according to regulations to stop the air from the drainage system entering the apartments.
