    Anti-Syphopn or HepVO Trap?

    I will let you know what the BI says. Though they did not say no on the phone - and no it was not the cleaner! Asking questions and debating received opinion and practices is hardly the sign of head in the sand approach. I am not being the one being offensive! Name calling is not...

    Anti-Syphopn or HepVO Trap?
