I’m in Virginia and AAV is an allowed venting option. My question is I want my AAV as high as possible under my sink and in order to get it up higher had to make this turn to get around big sink bowl. Is it ok to have these elbows prior to the vertical rise of the vent? Thanks

Looks like you can still reach up there and spin it out for replacement. If not, you can cut the pipe lower and use a mission coupling to reattach .

Sounds good. Yeah can unscrew still. So assume the elbows are fine to use there to get location right

I think 45s would be required, to avoid a horizontal dry vent below the flood rim level. A good idea regardless.
