Product Review

A dishwasher air gap is a critical component in maintaining a clean dishwasher. It prevents contaminants in the sink from flowing into the dishwasher and is required by plumbing code in most states. The Amerigap brand dishwasher air gap provides many advantages over other air gaps available on the market and also ensures safety and peace of mind that your water supply is clean. A common misconception is that a "high loop" (routing a drain line above a sink's flood level, for instance) will provide the same function as an air gap; this is not true, because the continuous connection between dishwasher and drain line still will allow back-flow of dirty water through siphoning. This air gap is simple to use and legal to install in any state. The AG200-003 air gap is listed by UPC and tested for compliance with IPC and NSF standards.
