Glad I stayed for the bloopers!

Omg!! I absolutely LOVE that you included the mishaps. 😆 I don't feel like I'm the only one now! That was great! I lol'd for real.

An AAV is supposed to be installed above the flood line of whatever it is protecting. So that made your test when the AAV was below that sink full of water even more impressive.

Your bloopers - I had tears in my eyes from laughing. I can SO relate. By the way, excellent home experiments on the AAVs. You convinced me they’d be ok to use in a new garage deep sink I’m installing. Thanks.

I appreciate the time you took to explain the Air admittance check valves. More importantly, it clearly demonstrates the legacy of continued overreach by bureaucratic or preferential regulations. People who develop these regulations do so to align their careers or to justify their existence. Which naturally leads to volumes and volumes of regs stacking up decade upon decade. One day, a new breed of authors will realize that they can make history by reviewing and deleting the outdated regs.

"Next week's episode will demonstrate how to patch a 3" hole in the drywall in your ceiling." after watching the blooper reel. Thanks for sharing!

good info anf great bloopers. a real man can laugh at himself.

i started crying of laughter when he hooked the compressor up at 8:10

I realize that I'm 3 years late to this video, TOP 3 of the most informative videos I've seen about plumbing.

I just purchased an old remodeled house in north carolina, and every drain has one of these valves. I've never seen them before. Thank you for the great info and tests.

Those bloopers were great. Alot of KZfaqrs would never show that stuff. Good laugh. Thank you.

The ending outtakes killed me!! Informative and funny. Thanks for taking the time to test and explain =D

Greatest bloopers ever! Thanks for being a good sport and sharing those with us!

The bloopers were absolutely hilarious! I could totally see that all happening to me! 😆

Lol, lol, lol 😂 That was a good video explaining the air admittance valve, and the bloopers at the end were great! I needed that laugh, and I am glad that you included them and that you weren't hurt!! I need to install one of these under my sink because when the washer water drains, there is a mighty gurgle in the kitchen sink! I will clean it out well first because I think there is probably a partial clog, too. I'm a 72 year old widow who always worked at office jobs but with the help of several KZfaq videos, I think I can do this!! We shall soon find out.😊

Loved the Bloopers. This should go viral. Thanks for sharing. Had no idea AAV were needed.

I loved the information in the video, but literally was laughing so hard I cried during your bloopers! Thanks for sharing it all!!!

Thanks so much for the bloopers! I was laughing out loud. You could have a viral video on your hands with this edited to have those in the main flow.

Thank you for sharing your bloopers!! Keeps us from making mistakes. Appreciate that. 👍

This video should have a million views, excellent information and you, sir, have a real sense of humor for the bloopers! My wife thinks I'm crazy and I about choked laughing! Thank you.

Thanks for spending the time and money to provide this content. I've been using these for years. Some inspectors approve and some don't. Gotta love the inspection process!

Love the bloopers! Lucky you did not loose an eye. Excellent video and thanks for doing all the tests. Feel much more comfortable installing one of these now.

That was hilarious!!! Thanks for alleviating my skepticism on using an AAV.

Exactly what I was for, especially the clog test with head pressure to simulate the vent below the sink brim. Perfect.

Very informative and useful. Loved the out takes. Thanks a lot!!

This guy going to blow his face off at least he did not glue it all together and let it cure or it might have exploded on him. When he hooked it up to the compressor I was really caught off guard and caught a good laugh thanks man!

Your honesty in including the bloopers got you a subscriber! You answered a bunch of questions I had, made me laugh and cured my headache. It was the least I could do in return.

Thank for you time and effort and your strength of ego to share your bloopers BRILLIANT TRULY BRILLIANT. THANKS AGAIN

I never comment on videos but this was amazing 😆 I’ve been watching videos to teach myself how to plumb my bathroom and this was both educational and hilarious so thank you for the laughs!

Love the bloopers. Glad you didnt get hurt.

I am a DIY and always trying to learn, great video. THANK YOU!!! I must admit today wasn't the best of days but the bloopers did put a smile on my face, for that I sincerely Thank you again..

This is just exactly how it always goes out in the real world! There used to be a show on HGTV called Real Reno’s and they always showed the goof ups cause that is the way it really goes! Great video !

You made me feel better about my plumber putting these in our new build. Plus the bloopers were priceless. "That was loud..." :) :) :)

If they are fitted properly and in the right place they are a problem solver. Great video.

Good video thanks GREAT BLOOPERS 🤪 Now I'm going out to my garage to make an Air Cannon!

I love this video. The bloopers at the end are a must-see. Very informative video. It answered my question about cheater vents.

Didn’t find what I was looking for, but sure am glad I stayed for the bloopers!

Thanks so much!! We moved into a new to us home and all the drains go into the floor!! So it’s good to know these things are safe to use.

Thank you! I enjoyed your analysis and experiments and then had a wonderful laugh from the bloopers! Awesome!

I am a building surveyor in the UK - we use them everywhere especially on high rise new build flats. When they fail or one has been fitted incorrectly you can tell because the resident complains of a strong sewage smell.

Loved the bloopers Thanks for the video and adding the laughs at the end.

So appreciative for the informative demos, Reuben. Appreciative also that you didn't tear, spindle, or mutilate yourself along the way! Stand up comedy is evidently in your future. Cheers!

Great video, and thanks so much for all the information you share. Your podcast is great! And thank you for the outtakes! Needed that laugh!

I always wanted to know if these Studor vents or cheater vents worked. Great info and I died laughing at the same time. Thanks for the laughter. I had to sub your channel.

Thankyou for testing these and showing they work. I must say I enjoyed watching as your quite a handsome man !!! This made this test much more enjoyable to watch!!

oh man these bloopers gave me a good laugh. love the tests and great video all around ahaha. cheers

OMFG, glad you were not hurt. Those outtakes were hysterical. Thanks for the vid. I was going to create a new vertical vent for a sink in the basement, but now I know, I don't have to.

Its a mechanical device with a type of valve & spring regardless it can fail. I don't want sewer smells in my house ever. I'll go for the standard vent that passes through the roofing to outside. Nice video & its good to see new products.

You did it! Made learning about Air Admittance Valves interesting and funny. Not an easy task.

Bloopers.....the best. Great video. Thanks for not being a cheesy home inspector

I came here to learn about AAVs, didn't know there would be legitimate laughs at the end. Good video.

Excellent review and "edited" testing. Glad to know these things actually work well. That said, thoroughly enjoyed the bloopers....you need to meet my good friend "Stoopie" who helps me do all of my projects.

Thank you for taking the time to educate us on these products. THE BLOOPERS 😂

Great info,outtakes were hilarious, pretty much me, anytime i attempt to do something! Thanks for the video!

Very informative Im looking at adding an outside Slop sink and want minimal disturbance to my Stucco wall when i tap into the bathtub drain inside the wall. Extra precaution. Bloopers were Great!

Thank you so much. You answered my question about water backing up and gave me a bunch of laughs too.

Great info; I'm getting one. The bloopers have me in stitches. Wear your safety glasses kids.

Great video, informative and the bloopers were great!

Your knowledge is much appreciated, even the unplanned and messy bits do help my understanding of that system, like.

Man I haven’t laughed this hard in a while thanks for the test I now have more confidence using these in my house. Also thanks for the side stitches

Ok, bloopers were awesome.

Better than the last 10 movies I've watched, loved it!!!

That was fun to watch. Thanks for the bloopers

Thank you. I appreciate you showing the out takes. That was funny. We've all done things like that before. LOL!

Geez dude, the bloopers lol. When you took a hit off that thing was hilarious. I'm not supposed to be laughing this hard this at work.

Thanks everything I needed to know and more especially the blooper reel

Thanks for the information and the bloopers!

Thanks for the video. I recently bought a house in TN and I have S traps under all my sinks since it was built before TN had building codes. I have vents pipes that terminate in my attic and occasional get sewer gases in my garage floor drain. Now I at least have a solution code or no code.

I just recently replaced my AAV for my double compartment kitchen sink because it didn't seem to be getting enough air in the system to drain thus when draining a some what soapy sink full, I would get alot of soapy water backing up into the other sink. Some water is expected to back into the other sink but mine was more than it should. Then even after that when draining water down the sink I previously drained all that soapy water, suds would back into the opposing sink excessively. Initially I thought I had a partial blockage snaked the line but still had this issue. In the end I replaced the AAV (oately) read on the it that it was rated for 9 DFU'S (a kitchen sink is 1.5 DFU'S) The one I got from home Depot was rated for 160 on a branch and 24 on a stack. They seemed to have improved the design and made it larger. Now I do not have the issue of excessive suds backing up. Just wanted to pass this on if anyone else was having this issue and couldn't figure it out. These are designed to stay closed until a positive pressure is applied. Venting systems purpose are to "maintain atmospheric pressure" in a plumbing system. Thanks for the interesting video!

Man oh man that was awesome. I nailed the info and made me laugh. Thank u. Your face is priceless with those tests that I would have made the same mistakes too. Thank u

Great thing you didn’t point it into your face. Thanks for the info

😄 liked the informative first part of the video, really loved the blooper stuff. 👍

Informative video. Thanks for the sewage leak test. That's what I have been looking for.

Thank you for the info. Loved the bloopers!! 🤣🤣

I’m a female and I had to see if these air admittance valves work because I’m installing one in my trailer home and this was the best video I’ve seen on KZfaq all year long I don’t care what kind of video it was this plumbing video topped it hands-down you made this awesome and thanks for the bloopers at the end!!!🤣

Thank you so much for the video! Very insightful!

THANKS SO MUCH!!! You explain thing very well and the help is greatly appreciated

Great video thanks for the info also great outtakes at the end very entertaining.

Very informative, and you may have missed your calling as a comedy film director/actor!

For 5-10 psi, I bicycle pump tied into 18" long 4" pipe would've been just fine and safer. Some of them even have a gauge already. Thanks for the demo and insight!

Super device. I am one that likes to see the nitty gritty, along with the smooth sailing. Obviously had the pressure set to high on your compressor in the bloopers lol.

The bloopers we're great!

Thanks for the info and comedy!

Great how to bud, you may have saved me from a torturous vent installation!👍

Watched to the end lol. Thanks for the chuckle.😂

Fantastic finish! And great Info!

Thanks so much for this video. I'm putting in a new bath, and shower where none previously existed and I have a slate roof I really didn't want to have my plumber cutting into so, you just put my mind at ease about using one of those units. Just wondering if they will need to be replaced once in a while and if so how often, thanks.

Brave to share your bloopers, thanks for the laughs.

7:42 My boy over here hoofing glue 😂

Great video, even greater bloopers 👍😜🤓 great job 👍

The last part is the best! Ive watched this video 3 times just to watch this thing pop off!! Lol

Great video! Love the bloopers section. My video would've been 9:00 of bloopers and 0:26 of good footage. 🤣

Oh my goodness! That was the best laugh I’ve had all day. The bloopers, that is. Otherwise informative.

The bloopers were awesome

I have a sewage smell under my sink i'm chasing. I'm hoping a failed admittance valve is the culprit. Thanks for the video

You got the thumbs up and a subscriber because of the bloopers. 🤣

Haha this was my informative and very entertaining!! Hahah thank you for including the ending. 10 psi is a lot of pressure.

Very Informative... Super Funny Bloopers!!!

Roof vent code requirements - brought to you by your local roofing company who fixes leaks….

Thanks for posting your tests, I only heard of these 2 days ago. Thanks for the bloopers too.
