Air/vacuum relief vents are explicitly marketed to dampen water hammer and break vacuum on system drain — vacuum-induced pipe collapse is a real failure mode on sloped drip-dispersal and irrigation runs, not just a nuisance-air-release feature.
Netafim's own material guidance is explicit — nylon valves for mild corrosive/acidity water, PVC for the higher end — the kind of two-tier spec choice that gets skipped when a supplier sells "irrigation valves" as one undifferentiated category.
