pressure (14.7) = 74.7 psia
Name 2 means of protecting against a direct cross connection to a pollutant. - ANS-Air
gap. Reduced pressure principle assembly (RP). Double check valve assembly (DC)

pressure vacuum breaker assembly? - ANS-Installed at least 12" above all downstream
piping and outlets.
Not subject to back pressure.
May be used to protect against a pollutant or contaminant.
What are the installation requirements for an atmospheric vacuum breaker? -
ANS-Installed at least 6" above all downstream piping and outlets.
Not subject to back pressure
Maybe used to protect against a pollutant or contaminant.
No downstream shutoff valves.
Non continuous use (Not more than 12 hours out of a 24 hour period)
