Studor Vents or AAV's(Air Admittance Valves) take the place of a regular vent through your roof.  They mount downstream from the trap and perform a regular vents function.  Install a upright tee between the trap and the wall stub out.  Now glue in a Studor Vent and the fixture will be vented.  Good luck,  Tom

can a studor vent be installed insde the wall  Only  if a access panel is provided.
Since a AAV is a mechanical vent it can go bad.  If it's inside a wall it can't be serviced so it's best to keep them where you can get at them.  AAV's aren't allowed in some areas. Check your local codes. Good luck
