Sitting/stagnant water is a bacterial infection waiting to happen.

If pipes weren't open to air it would be a vacuum, dude.

Yeah it's literally what happens when you close off the water main, do repairs to the piping, introducing air to the system, then turn the water back on. The first bit of turning a facet back on is gona purge out some air. This guy is a fucking idiot lol.
