Back vent. A pipe or system of pipes connected to the drainage pipes of a plumbing system for the purpose of supplying or removing air to relieve pressures above or below atmospheric.

Anti-siphonage pipe. An air pipe in a plumbing system which admits air downstream of a water seal in a w.c., sink or washbasin, thus preventing the creation of a vacuum in the wake of water flushed down the drain and avoiding the breakage of the seal which such a vacuum could cause. The top of an anti-siphonage pipe may be connected to a ventilation pipe. 2, record 3, English, - back%20vent

Lorsqu’on a affaire, d’une part à une descente qui ne reçoit que des lavabos bidets, baignoires, éviers et autres appareils de même nature et d’autre part à une chute qui ne reçoit que des W.-C., on se contente de les ventiler chacune par le haut en les prolongeant hors combles dans le même diamètre : c’est ce qu’on appelle la ventilation primaire. Si l’on réunit descente et chute en une chute unique la norme fait obligation d’établir une ventilation spéciale pour tous les siphons des appareils autres que les W.-C. : c’est ce qu’on appelle la ventilation secondaire. Quand il y a plusieurs appareils les ventilations sont raccordées à un réseau dit réseau de ventilation secondaire. 4, record 3, French, - ventilation%20secondaire
