You remove the cup from above. There is a plastic nut on the base of the stub out. Unscrew that nut. The air-gap will fall down through the hole.

Hmm, I can't get it to fall down. Maybe its stuck after being there for several years. Hafta bust out a hammer maybe.

Yes, it may be stuck. Some HomeOwners caulk it down to the sink. Additionally, there are 2 hoses that keep it in upward position. Push on it hard or easily tap it with hammer.

OK, I'll try that when I get home. The whole assembley is loose and the plastic nut is unscrewed as far as it will go. I can move it up and down about 3 inches but each end is too big for it to just slide out.

Yes, it is hanging on the 7/8" and 5/8" hoses. They are kind of stiff. You will have to either cut them or undo the clamps that hold the hoses on air gap.

Metal blade on my jigsaw did the trick. Mission accomplished. Thanks guys

Bingo ! Another Air-Gap sent to Air-Gap Heaven ! Tom would love it ! :D

Glad to be able to help you !

Hi Milo,

You Did it again and handled this one very good and like you said Tom would love this he really loves the hi loop, Thanks.

John

It's not as much as loving a high loop, that works all the time, as disliking a counter top air gap that Can clog up and flood. High loops rule!!
