Any soil pipe vent valve shall be
connected to the open end of a
ventilation pipe at a point at least
150mmabove the flood level of:
Any sanitary fixture served by
such a ventilated pipe.
The highest sanitary fixture
served by such ventilation pipe.
Rated at 400 l/min.
One-way: external and
internal use.
Two-way: external use only.
Any ventilation pipe shall not have a
reduction in diameter, i.e. 110mm
vent valve on a 110mm vent pipe at
the head of a drain and on branch
drains.
The vent valve provides for this by
design, that is provided the valve is
rated as a 400 l/min valve, it can be
used in this situation.
This is where our Freeflo 400

valves are beneficial. The 50mm

and 110mm valves are the same. An
adaptor is simply added to increase
the size to 110mm.
This means that both the 50mm and
110mm valve are rated at 400 l/min
and can be selected for their size
requirements and not their rating.
