Upgrading Old Plumbing Vent Systems
Rehabilitation, modernization, or renovation of existing buildings, as a resource to be conserved or recycled and reused, frequently imposes increased loads on the plumbing water supply and drainage system. The requirement for venting in U.S. practice is intended to prevent trap seal loss from exceeding values prescribed in model plumbing codes. The vent piping in older buildings may be marginal for retrofit under current requirements with the same or increased numbers of fixtures and devices installed into the plumbing system. An experimental laboratory investigation of circulation loop modification to the drain-waste-vent (DWV) system to relieve the marginal performance of existing installations is reported.
