Benefits of Using Air Vents in a pipeline and their Effects on Water Pressure | Plasto

Hello Friends,

Water flow in a pipeline gets reduced as the years pass by. There can be many reasons
behind that. One of the reasons behind low pressure can be "Air vent".

Airlocks are a common issue in a pipeline. Airlocks occur in a pipeline because of
inappropriate installation of the pipeline during construction. These airlocks
affect the water discharge as shown in the video.

In the video:
Plasto conducted an experiment to show the water pressure difference in the presence & absence
of Air vent.

Observation:

Absence of Air-Vent: The air in the pipeline gets no other way to escape and ultimately
passes from the tap.
Water discharge received in 1min (Absence of Air-Vent) : 26L

Presence of Air-Vent: The air escapes from the air vent and there is no impact on the water pressure
Water discharge received in 1min (Presence of Air-Vent): 27.5L

Conclusion: It was observed that the water discharge in the presence of Air-Vent was 5% more than the discharge
in the absence of Air-Vent.

Adding an Air-Vent in a pipeline is very important as it doesn't allow any air locks to occur in a pipeline and
you won't face any pressure issues in long run.
