Anti siphon valve

Anyone know where the black tank anti siphon valve is located on the 2015 Solera 24R? Thanks.

It has to be on the interior close to where the exterior flush connection fitting is located, but I don't remember seeing it on my previous 24r.
It is likely attached to the back wall of the bathroom sink vanity base. If I remember correctly, the flush connection is positioned where the line would run behind the shower over to the sink.
I might be wrong, but that's about the only place for it to be installed.

A point of clarification: it would be accessible by just opening the cabinet base door, if that is indeed where it is located.

Thank you for the information. The only thing I could find is the picture attached; but I believe that is the carbon vent, correct? If so, I guess my anti-siphon is behind the wall. Jim

It probably looks like this one. It won't be oriented like this though.

It should be plumbed like this, but exactly where is anyone's guess.

Most are under the sink like this one, but not always (as you've found out).

That's the vent. The valve should be in serviceable location, you would think, and not enclosed inside a wall. I believe MikeJax, another senior member that is very knowledgeable, runs a 24R. You might send him a PM and ask him if he can give you direction.

I think that I remember having seen an access panel behind the sliding door in the bedroom that gave access to the shower plumbing, so you might check that area.
It's been a couple of years since I traded my R, so my memory might not be correct. Good luck!
