Loz7, good evening.

Suggest? you Google [other search engines are available] Durgo Valves?

These things allow air to get into a Soil Pipe, but do not allow Sewer gas to get into the House?

As long as there is a vent elsewhere on the property, you shouldn't need another. Terminate the new stack with an Air Admittance Valve (AAV, also referred to as a 'Durgo Valve'), which must be above the spillover level of the highest appliance connected to the stack. (Usually this is the basin).
