Air release allows air to escape the system at startup and vacuum relief allows air to enter the system during shutdown. Air vents are installed at the high point of the drip field to keep soil from being sucked into the drip emitter due to back siphoning or back pressure. This is an absolute necessity with underground drip systems. They are also used for proper drainage of the supply and return manifolds. Use one on the high point of the supply manifold and one on the high end of the return manifold and any high points in the system. A pre-installed schrader valve allows pressure testing off the air/vacuum breaker.
