I'm sure ready to be over it,

belch out on the floor.
That is not an air gap, as it would be possible to block the opening on the tee and eliminate the air gap.

Thanks guys.
I'm kind of tired of this
whole kabuki dance with
this deal.
Is it worth going back
with the fitting?
This could stretch out
for a loooong time.
