Kitchen sink & trap

Water leaves the sink through a drain. The curved trap underneath holds water to help keep sewer gases out of your kitchen.

  1. Sink outlet. Used water leaves the basin through the outlet and tailpiece.
  2. Water seal. Water remains in the low curve of the trap after flow stops. That seal helps keep sewer gases outside the room.
  3. Drain connection. Wastewater continues into the branch drain. The connected vent helps protect the trap seal.

Plumbing vent

Vents let air move through the drainage system. This helps protect the water seals in traps as wastewater flows away.

  1. Trap seal. Water in the fixture trap separates room air from the drainage system.
  2. Vent connection. The vent connects the drainage piping to air, helping protect the trap seal as water moves.
  3. Above the roof. A vent can continue through the roof. Its exact layout and termination vary by building.

Questions about drain cleaning

Which household drains can Arnold's Plumbing, Heating & Air clean?

Arnold's Plumbing, Heating & Air provides clog removal for kitchen, bathroom and other household drains. When you call, name the sink, shower, tub or other drain involved and describe whether water drains slowly or stays standing.

What should I mention if several drains are backing up?

Tell the office which fixtures are affected and whether they changed at the same time. Multiple affected drains are useful information when discussing whether a branch drain or the main sewer line needs assessment. The symptoms alone do not establish the cause.
