    Kitchen mini vent leaking water
    I had a leak beneath my sink and when I checked it I noticed that a Studor Mini Vent was there and leaking water, I opened it allowing it to drain, reattached it but the water leak didn't stop
    I'd like to know if there is anyone else who knows of a Studor mini vent leaking water because I have searched and came up empty

    What is the elevation of the AAV vs the drain pipe. Water doesn't flow up.

    AAVs are designed to only pull air in and to prevent air from blowing out. You failed to mention where it is leaking from. If water's coming out of the top of the AAV then it's gone bad. I'd replace the AAV. Good luck, Tom
