DW Air Gap Valve
I just moved into a new abode and when the DW is emptying, there is a lot of
water flowing out of the air gap value. Is this normal or do I have a problem? Thanks |

Thanks The drain after the air gap is clogged. It is doing its job by letting water out of the gap when it has no place to go. |
