    He didn't mention how the S bend keeps out the smell by keeping water there to block the sewer smell from coming through. Or the fact that pressure generated is due to the height of the water in tank. :|

    its called a p-trap , back in the day houses didnt have it on the inside (where im from) rather at the base of the house, there woulkd only be one for the hole house, these things were hard to mantain so WALA now u got a gaurd against smelly stuff at every drain. also theeres no pressure, its just gravity and how clean the drainage holes are... the only pressure is the water coming into the tank through the intake hose.... correction, u do need a certain amount of water to make this work so i guess im a ding dong that would be pressure, but yea i just felt like expandin on yr comment
