DANCO 7/8 O.D. Air Gap Body with Air Gap Cap in Matte Black

The Danco Complete Air Gap Assembly with White Air Gap Cap prevents sewage from flowing back into the dishwasher. The dishwasher air gap is mounted above the sink and air shields dishwasher water from overflowing into your main water lines, as required by code in many states. It is a simple way to make certain wastewater and debris never re-enter your clean water supply. When you are running your dishes through a wash cycle, the last thing you want is for them to emerge streaked with grime pumped in from your clogged garbage disposal. The air gap body separates the hose running dirty water from the hose running to the drain. Since these two paths never intersect, there is no risk of wastewater creeping back into your clean appliance. The matte black finish can be looked at as modern but it is a transitional finish too, every space needs a little bit of black so adding in black hardware, faucets, and other fixtures is a great way to include this design staple into your space.
