avluft till avlopp

Explanation:
Soil vent pipe refers to the ventilation that is required to 'soiled water' that is wastewater from your WC, sink,WHB etc. You need to ventilate these pipes to avoid the foul smell coming back inside your dwelling via your fittings. In Swedish we call this Avluftsrör and to further clarify you could say 'avluftsrör till avlopp' or some such frase. See the webreference, page 12 to see a schematic drawing of the system.
