Product Information

The Air Gap (IAG-1) is a device used in plumbing to prevent wastewater from siphoning back into the dishwasher. It is a safety feature required by most plumbing codes. The Air Gap is made up of three main parts: the Air Gap top, Mounting washer, and Bottom Clamp nut. It also includes a Threaded Air Gap Piping Body that connects to the dishwasher drain hose and the sink drain. The Air Gap is designed to fit countertops with a maximum thickness of 1-1/4 inches, and requires a 1-3/8 inch diameter hole for installation.

The Galley Tap comes with a Limited Lifetime Mechanical Warranty. The warranty covers manufacturing defects in materials and workmanship under normal usage for the useful life of the product. The warranty is subject to certain conditions and limitations.
