Locating and Sizing Air‐Release Valves
Air can enter a pipeline in any number of insidious ways: through packing glands, leaky joints, and even from the water itself. Unless passage is fast enough to purge any buildup of air at high points along the pipe line, large air pockets can form that will impede the flow of water. Properly located air‐release valves can minimize the problem.
