What Customers Are Saying

The Air Admittance Valve (AAV) is generally an effective and affordable solution for venting plumbing systems. Many customers found it resolved slow drainage and sewer odor issues, and reported it was easy to install. However, some customers experienced issues with the product not completely solving odor problems or receiving defective units. Overall, the AAV is a functional product that provides good value, though higher-quality options may be preferable for certain applications.

Inexpensive way to fix a drain vacuum.

Would Recommend

This product will serve to eliminate sink drainage problems caused by vacuum in the drain pipe. Very simply made product which has a butterfly type rubber flap which only allows air to flow in one direction. The only problem you might have with the valve sticking open which could cause sewage smell. Not a bad product.

This product WORKS!

Would Recommend

I was very concerned about some reviews for ALL similar products.

Mobile homes use these extensively to substitute for roof vents. When they fail, the water slowly drains away due to the inability for air pressure to equalize inside the drain pipe. These valves admit air from the room to the drain pipe, allowing for water to drain properly. These are threaded...

Keeney Plastic Air Admittance Valve

This Air Admittance Valve did the trick on unstopping my kitchen sinks. They now put the water right down the drain and do not back up in the other sink.
