Anyone know the function of a banjo strainer?

Default Re: banjo strainer?

Dont' know why one would be on a DWV system. Typically used on large water lines like commercial irrigation and industrial sprayers to keep crap out of the nozzles and such. Is there a hose attachment on the end for backflushing?



"War is an ugly thing, but not the ugliest of things; the decayed and degraded state of moral and patriotic feeling which thinks nothing is worth a war, is worse. A man who has nothing which he cares more about than he does about his personal safety is a miserable creature who has no chance at being free, unless made and kept so by the exertions of better men than himself."

- John Stuart Mill

I did not notice one. The waste lines drain into an ejection pump.
