    why do you need a air gap

    Asked by don January 26, 2019

    Answers

    You may not need one. We ended up returning this when our sink installer/plumber told us we didn’t need it.

    Why doesn't the Delta "arctic stainless" air gap match the Delta stainless steel faucet in color ...

    Asked by Goat May 24, 2018

    Answers

    We purchased the Delta "arctic stainless" air gap for our stainless steel sink and the appearance is more than acceptable. We did not have a problem with the color or texture matching the sink.

    does the cap just simply screw on?

    do all air gaps come with the cover and the extension to connect dishwasher and vent?

    Asked by msmahoney July 15, 2014
    2
    Answers

    To the best of my knowledge, Air Gap assemblies do not come with a cap. It makes sense to purchase a cap that will match or complement the sink and faucet installed.

    How does this air gap connect to a dishwasher outflow hose and the hose to the disposal unit?

    Asked by Al July 20, 2016

    Answer

    Hi Al, Thank you for your question about the Classic Kitchen Air Gap. The dishwasher drain line goes into one side of the air gap, and the disposal line goes into the other side. If you are needing an air gap for the faucet as well, another one would have to be purchased. Thanks, Nick

    What is a air gap & it's purpose? Will it fit where the old sprayer nossel was installed?

    Asked by Wild September 3, 2016
    1
    Answer

    Hello Wild, Thank you for your question on the Classic Kitchen Air Gap in Arctic Stainless. I will be more than happy to assist you. An airgap is just one of the many things designed to stop contaminated water from backing into the water supply. Also, if the drain becomes clogged, the air gap will discharged the dishwasher water into the sink. Yes, this should fit where your sprayer was installed. If you need anything else please contact us by calling 800-345-3358. Thanks, Sarah Consumer Care Delta Faucet Company

    Hi Bob, Thank you for your question. We do not provide the tool needed for the holes. We recommend contacting the sink manufacturer to see what they recommend that you use. Thanks. Jody

    Will this air gap work with Delta model 59963-sssd-dst?

    Hi Gogirl, Thank you for your question. Delta Faucet model # 72020-AR will work with the model 59963-SSSD-DST. However, the finish will not match. We recommend model 72020-SS instead. Thanks. Jody

    April 30, 2020
    This Air Gap matches perfectly with our new Delta faucets and Soap dispenser. I have not used my new dishwasher yet but I used a certified plumber to install everything so I am sure it will work well. (Please pardon the unfinished back splash)

    The cover is nice. However the plastic air gap leaks...allows water to bubble all over the counter. It was installed to replace an old air gap that didn't have a cover. The first time I ran the dishwasher after this one was installed, there was water all over the counter. I called the plumber back to make sure that lines weren't clogged...they were new lines but best to be safe and check. They could find no problems. No clogs in the new lines or the new air gap ...but when we ran a test, water bubbled all over the counter again..... They suggested that I buy a new plastic air gap from a plumbing store....

    water all over counter
    July 3, 2018
    Customer review from deltafaucet.com logo
    I bought the air gap and cover to replace one that the builder had literally left under the sink. I have run the dishwasher 2x's and each time, water bubbles out of the air gap onto my counters.... The plumbers were out today to make sure that no lines were clogged: they weren't. They disconnected and reconnected the lines: tested it again....water all over the counters. There is a flaw in the design of the plastic air gap...have to go to a plumbing store to get a new plastic air gap... (The cover is fine..so far.)

    Quality Air Gap
    March 10, 2017
    Customer review from deltafaucet.com logo
    This is a quality air gap from Delta. It's much better than the cheap ones you'd buy at the home improvement stores. The Delta air gap has thicker metal and better looking chrome than the others. The trick to installing this is to set the plastic mounting assembly at the correct height- if it's set too high then the chrome cap won't cover it entirely. When you've got it set just right the chrome cap comes all the way down to sit right on the sink surface.

    The Air Gap shows water marks and is quite different from the stainless steel faucet we purchased for the sink. It is annoying to look at it and see a mismatch in looks and quality.
    Pros: Easy to Install
    Cons: water marks, mismatch to faucet

    Hello GS95670,

    Thank you for your review on the Classic Kitchen Air Gap in Arctic Stainless. We are so sorry for the inconveniences you have been faced with. The finish does not match because the sink is stainless where as the air gap is arctic stainless. I recommend returning this back to the store and getting on in the stainless finish which is model number 72020-SS. If you have any other questions or concerns please contact us by calling 800-345-3358 and we will rectify the situation for you.

    Thanks,
