Plumbing Basics: How Well Do You Know Pipes, Fixtures, and More?
Which plumbing component is vital for ensuring proper venting in a drainage system?

It also vents sewer gases outside the building, ensuring proper atmospheric pressure in the plumbing system. Without proper venting, drains can become slow or stop working.
