Anti siphonage pipe:
- An extra pipe connected to the outlets of toilet seats of all the floors, the other end of which is exposed to atmosphere is called anti-siphonage pipe.
- These are provided to maintain water seal so that foul gases of the sewer line do not find entry in to the toilet/ bathrooms.
- It is connected at the top of the P-Trap because this location helps maintain air pressure balance and prevents the water seal from being sucked out when wastewater flows through the main soil pipe.
