The primary use of vacuum relief valves is to prevent overpressurization within a closed system. It is a valuable safety device and helps to maintain pressure within operational guidelines. A vacuum breaker is used to prevent contaminated water from backflowing into a potable water supply. The vacuum breaker will automatically break the vacuum that could develop within your plumbing system and maintains normal atmospheric pressure to prevent contamination.

The two prominent varieties of pressure relief valve both work to keep your systems safe. Pressure relief valves seek to release excessive pressure from systems to maintain operational levels. By contrast, vacuum relief valves allow air to enter into negative pressure (vacuum) systems to prevent an excess buildup of vacuum, which can cause damage to sensitive systems and components.
