A trap on a positive drain is used to avoid the 'contaminated' air in a HVAC system from traveling through the condensate line and entering into areas where it is unwanted. The trap becomes necessary when one condensate line is used for multiple units, especially if it is tied to other negative pressure drain traps. The negative pressure drain traps may not drain properly if they have to overcome the positive non- trapped pressure of another unit. It allows the condensate to drain more evenly, as well. Without a trap, the positive pressure from the unit can blow air through the drain with the water and cause 'spitting.' A trap on a positive pressure system may not always be necessary, but it is good practice to trap every drain and trap it properly. There are guidelines for both positive and negative pressure traps. Always follow the manufacturers recommendations.

What is the answer to negative fifteen divided by positive three?
Negative 5. It's normal division, except you need to remember these rules: Positive & Negative = Negative Positive & Positive = Positive
Why do you need a positive and a negative?
Well it depends on if you are talking mathematical or scientific.
What is a negative times a positive times a positive?
A negative. If you have a string of positive and negative numbers multiplied together, all you need to find the sign of the answer is to find the parity of the negative numbers. If there are an odd number of negatives then the answer is negative and if there are an even number of negatives then the answer is positive. Remember, positive numbers make no difference to the sign of the answer.
What are the factors that will equal negative ten?
factors are the numbers you multiply together to get a product in a multiplication problem. a positive times a positive = a positive a positive times a negative = a negative a negative times a negative = a positive since you are looking for negative 10, you need one factor to be positive and one to be negative. this could be: -1*10 -10*1 -2*5 -5*2

Why do your drains gurgle when they drain?
They gurgle because of the sudden release of air. You have this gurgle because your vent pipes are either stopped up, in the wrong place, or are iadequate in size. When you drain water the you put pressure on the air in the drain lines. This pressure is actually sewage gas and should go out through your vent stack(s). You will need to repair or reppace your vents for this problem to be corrected.
Can you hook up and rely on the Temperature Pressure Relief valve for a new electric hot water heater to a drain or do you really need an expansion tank?
Depends on your code. If you have a PRV or, as you would say, pressure reducing valve on your water supply to your house, you need an expansion tank. If your pressure is above 80 psi, you need a PRV AND an expansion tank.
How do you increase well water pressure?
This is done at the pressure tank. First drain the tank with pump off, then check air pressure at the tank top nipple. It should be above 26 psi. If not this is your problem. You may need a new tank or it it's a 'galvanised ' tank , a new air charge. You may also need the pressure switch adjusted, or even a new one. -Call a well technician for an expert opinion and repair.This is done at the pressure tank.

You just had your water conditioner serviced and the tech that serviced the system told you that you need to replace the pressure regulator valve because the pressure is reading 105psi and should be 7?
if your pressuere is curently 105psi then you do have a problem, the pressure should be no mor than 70psi with city water and 60psi with well water. before replacing you should try adjusting the regulator that you you have by putting a gauge on one drain cock and running another. as you are doing this hold the center adjusting screw while loosening the lock nut on top, once you have loosened the lock nut you can tun the center adjusting screw clockwise to lower the pressure. if the pressure dose not go down then the regulator will need to be replaced

Is there more pressure used in Osmosis or reverse Osmosis?
Water or liquid move naturally from lower concentration to higher concentration. The drive force is called osmotic pressure. No additional pressure need to drive osmosis process. Reverse osmosis, is apply pressure to fight against osmotic pressure. It do need additional pressure to reverse the osmosis process. It is comparing a zero additional pressure with any positive additional pressure thus of cause reverse osmosis require more pressure.
Toilet wont work on floor drain?
Probably not. There is no vent for that drain, it did not need one for a floor drain. A toilet is trying to push against the air pressure in the drain.Normally a decent plumber will install a floor drain with in 15 feet of a vented line or will vent the FD in case irt exceeds the 15 ft ruleA Floor drain can be as small as 2" diameter and thus it is undersized for a toilet and a floor drain alread has a trap and a toilet would thus be drouble trapped
