    Kitchen pipes gurgling
    My kitchen sink pipes makes a gurgling sound when water is going through. If I run a good amount of water for about a minute or two, it stops temporarily. Could this be air in the pipes. My husband and I suspect that is the problem since there are no backups associated with it and the garbage disposal continues to run through its cycle without issues. :confused: Thanks for your help in this matter.

    Your sink's telling you the vents bocked and it's venting though the sinks trap.
    The solution would be to snake the kitchen roof vent. Put out enough snake to reach the base and 16 feet more. Good luck, tom
