   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Drain-waste-vent_system

   To allow a single roof penetration as permitted by local building code, sub-vents may be tied together inside the building and exit via a common vent stack, frequently the "main" vent. Adding a vent connection within a long horizontal run with little slope will aid flow, and when used with a cleanout allows for better serviceability.

4. Stack effect - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stack_effect

   During the cooling season, the stack effect is reversed, but is typically weaker due to lower temperature differences. [1] In a modern high-rise building with a well-sealed envelope, the stack effect can create significant pressure differences that must be given design consideration and may need to be addressed with mechanical ventilation ...

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trap_(plumbing)

   In the United States, plumbing codes usually provide strict limitations on how far a trap may be located from the nearest vent stack. When a vent cannot be provided, an air admittance valve may be used instead. These devices avoid negative pressure in the drain pipe by venting room air into the drain pipe (behind the trap).

6. Ventilation (architecture) - Wikipedia

   The furnace, built on the outside of the workshop, featured earthen pipe-like air vents with hundreds of tiny holes in them and a prototype chimney to ensure air goes into the furnace to feed the fire and smoke comes out safely. [39] Passive ventilation and passive cooling systems were widely written about around the Mediterranean by Classical ...

7. Gooseneck (piping) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gooseneck_(piping)

   Gooseneck vent with check valve being repainted. A gooseneck (or goose neck) is a 180° pipe fitting at the top of a vertical pipe that prevents entry of water. Common implementations of goosenecks are ventilator piping or ducting for bathroom and kitchen exhaust fans, ship holds, landfill methane vent pipes, or any other piping implementation exposed to the weather where water ingress would ...
