unit vent

an air pressure less than atmospheric. Also, implies siphonage in piping system

vacuum

a pipe or opening used for ensuring the circulation of air in a plumbing system and for relieving the negative pressure exerted on trap seals

vent pipe

the vertical vent pipe installed primarily for providing circulation of air to and from any part of the soil, waste of the drainage system

vent stack

pipes installed to provide flow of air to or from a drainage system or to provide circulation of air within such system to protect trap seals from siphonage and backpressure

Also a pipe fitting of three branches that form the letter ''wye''a hose connection with two-gated outlets permitting two connections ofthe same or smaller coupling diameter to be taken from a single supply line. Also a pipe fitting of three branches that form the letter ''wye''

wye
