Rated 5 out of 5 by CX500 from Soil pipe vent The vent was very easy to install, it is value for the money. The staff at Newark Screwfix I found to be just as polite and helpful as the Lowestoft branch. I would recommend Screwfix to anyone, I always go to Screwfix first when I require anything.

Rated 5 out of 5 by W2APS from Fitted in 1950s house I'm using one in the top of a stack pipe on the back of my 1950s house cast iron stack pipe as part of a rat prevention solution. Fitted in nicely after trimming the rubber flanges to half their original width.

Rated 5 out of 5 by Teefin from Well made and nasty smell away Having moved into a new house which had been built in 2016 I was surprised to find an unpleasant smell within the attic space. A quick examination found the 2 SVPs from the bathrooms terminated within the attic and both had been left open ended. I did a quick search and found these McAlpine fittings available at what I considered a reasonable price. I previously trained as a plumber before taking up another career so although there were cheaper options available I knew and trusted McAlpine from previous experience so bought 2. Fitted both in under 5 mins including getting into the loft and later that night the smell was away. Use a little lubrication on the rubber seal and it will slide into the pipe with little effort. Also remember to check that the top is tightened down as this holds the wire filter gauze in place. I have advised my neighbours to check their own loft space and will recommend these valves if they have also been left short by the builder.

McAlpine VP100E Push-Fit Air Admittance Valve Reviews - page 2

Can the valve be installed at low level to a vent pipe installed to vent an external soil drainage system serving a bungalow.

Not sure of installation height for this AAV

Product description states this item "Can be installed above or below the flood level of connecting appliances." Can I install it on 110mm boss right above toilet waste pipe entry without extending soil pipe upwards? 1 shower + basin also on this pipe

Asked by: EnsuiteBuilder

Can you dismantle it and clean the insides?

If the *internal* diaphragm gets stuck or needs a clean for any reason, can you open it up? The Floplast make a similar product and the top 'lid' can be rotated off to make maintenance of the insides easier.

Asked by: ShanTheMan

Does this fit into plain end pipe or socket.

As title, can anyone please tell me if this fits into the plain end of a pipe or only into a socket? Many thanks.
