How would air itself get down there? Its all about phsyics. See if you open a drain at the bottom of the tank, and the tank isnt sealed air tight, the air will "push" the water down the drain in to what ever is at the end of the hose. Gravity will pull the water, but the air pressure itself will prevent any of the back bubbles I think your asking about Scott, so you wont need check valves for that reason.
Nice Tank Flatlander! You say its been broken down??? Thats too bad. I didnt get to read over it very much...I have to go tot school here shortly. But I'll check it out tonight.
