Why do people insist on fitting air admittance valves outside?

They look much better than having a long 4" vent pipe going all

and 2ft above gutters.

what if they freeze up?...I know it is unlikely due to hot air

I'm a retired plumber and I cannot recall any durgo valve
freezing.


good a plumber....why is my new 'Dudley syphonic flush' not worth
a
monkey
in the flushing stakes ???? . ......


stuck my hand in and fiddled about with the membrane and it
improved
somewhat ....but still a rubbish flusher


Membrane in the syphon stuck or damaged.If it worked properly in the
past,
then get a new syphon.


this is the new unit I am talking about...it never worked
properly...it's
just the hassle of fitting another one....


Ah, you know that you should've complained to the installer from the
beginning.

can't complain to myself.......


lol.

just visited a plumbers I used to do drain testing for in Paisley...he is
going to fit a new unit ....properly...tee hee


That should sort it once and for all :-)

hope so...fitted loads in the past so no idea why I have this problem now
.....


Oh well, I wish you the best of luck. I'm sure it will work out well.
