Where should the automatic vent fitting be installed to ensure accessibility for inspection and replacement?

  1. A. Behind walls

  2. B. In concealed locations

  3. C. In an open area

  4. D. Readily accessible locations

The correct answer is: D. Readily accessible locations

The automatic vent fitting should be installed in readily accessible locations to ensure that it can be easily inspected and replaced when necessary. Regular maintenance is vital to ensure that plumbing systems function properly and efficiently, and having access to components like vent fittings allows for quicker identification of any issues that may arise. Installing such fittings in accessible areas also facilitates compliance with plumbing codes and standards, which prioritize safety and functionality. Locations that are concealed or behind walls can complicate or hinder the inspection process, potentially leading to maintenance issues being overlooked until they cause significant problems. An open area could be suitable, but it does not guarantee the same level of access as a specifically designated readily accessible location.
