Mfg Llc 2" Quietsewage Chk Valve B-0823-20C Well Supply Accessories

Thanks again! Great product. I had replaced check valve 8 years ago. Took the noise of sleep awakening hammering down to minimal. Worked great for 8 years. Recently ejector pump failed. Should have done myself, but short on time, so paid $1000 for national outfit to replace pump. During my oversight, asked if we should drain sump and look for debris.... no need was answer. 3 days of new ejector, sounded like helicopter hovering over house. Found to be stuck open check valve. Cut out the valve, found large shards of metal in valve - likely rusted out housing of ejector pump 10 years ago or old impeller parts. Took pump out and cleaned sump. A lot more of large metal shards and old hose clamps in the sump. Just waiting to jam and destroy new pump or lock up check valve more. The check valve was functioning great, just had shards remaining in the valve reservoir area. But had to replace because it was solvent weld and could not salvage enough pipe length with proximity to ball valve. Thank you for the new upgrade of screw fittings. And advice to others- do the project yourself to do right, or make hired help drain and clean sump to clear of debris that would surely lead to early failure.

Using in a basement sump pit with grinder pump. Before installing, my pump was running for long periods of time (it typically only runs for 5-10 seconds at a time to empty out the sump pit). I wasn't sure if a) the pump was bad, b) the check valve was bad (my original valve was not a 'see through' design) or c) my pipe had a clog somewhere. Turns out it was my old check valve that was bad. The install was easy (basic PVC cutting and gluing) and it comes with PVC attachments that let you unscrew out the valve if needed. This might be handy if I have to replace someday -- can just screw another one in without having to cut or glue. This valve lets huge amounts of flow through, and best of all it is COMPLETELY quiet. If I have problems in the future then being able to see the water flow will let me know if water is flowing to help with the diagnosis. No more water hammer when it shuts off, you don't hear it at all. Why didn't I buy this years ago? I've had it installed for about a month, so I can't yet speak to it's longevity but I see no reason it shouldn't last a long time. Completely satisfied. UPDATE - 15 months later and working perfectly. It's one of those things that you 'enjoy' every time it works. Sounds silly for a check flow valve but it's quiet and works so well. If you need a valve you must buy this. I paid full price for mine and have no relationship with the manufacturer!

Like many people have reported in their reviews, I had been putting up with a loud "clunking" noise for years every time my sump pump expelled water from the sump pit. The cause was an old Legend check valve with a rubber flapper. After reading the 95%+ positive reviews on this site, I decided to buy this "quiet" check valve in hopes of eliminating the irritating clunking noise. It arrived from the shipper, LA Pond, within 3 days of placing the order on Amazon. There were no installation instructions included with the valve, so I did some internet research and figured out how to properly install it. After removing the old valve, I discovered that the new Campbell valve was somewhat longer than the old Legend valve, so I had to cut 2" off the end of one of the existing PVC pipes to create the required 8" space between the ends of the two existing PVC pipes. The recommended way to install this valve is to glue the upper and lower couplers to the existing PVC pipes. Since I already had a can of PVC cement and a can of purple primer on hand, no trip to the hardware store was necessary. After gluing the couplers onto the pipes and letting them cure for 10-15 minutes, it was then just a matter of fitting the main body (the clear part) between the couplers and securing the unit in place by hand-tightening the threaded end caps. I then plugged in the sump pump, opened the shut-off valve above the check valve, and slowly filled the pit with a couple buckets of water to activate the pump. The result was just as I had hoped: no more clunking noise! And no leaks either. This is a wonderful product -- just wish I had installed it 5 years ago when I bought this house. UPDATE January 2018: After 4 years of use, this valve still works flawlessly.

Works brilliantly. I wish they had an opaque version. I'm using it for my basement sewage pump and I really don't want to see what's passing through it. Plan to keep it covered. I'm using a 1½ " version on the sump pump for the past 4 years - no issues (knock on wood!) Careful when cementing the coupler piece to the PVC pipe. When I inserted the pipe into it with both pieces cleaned and cemented - the pipe nearly completely popped back out instantly. I was able to immediately push the pipe back in and give it the required twist and hold the pieces together with pressure to fuse the pieces. So make sure that you hold both pieces under pressure from 30secs to a min to give the pieces time to fuse. Otherwise it will likely pop out and you'll end up with a weak or leaky connection. Docked a star for their non-existant customer service. No way to reach them. Which is a bummer!

I had tried several check valves and all were very noisy on closing. I was sceptical about the claims made by the manufacturer but for the price I thought it was worth a try. I was amazed by how quiet this valve is and well worth the price, which is not expensive. I would recommend this valve over and above any regular type to anyone who requires a quiet functioning one way valve and as a plus they have very fast shipping.

Fast shipping and as described. Used on my 2 inch sewer sump pump, which thumped repetitively for about 10 seconds, likely the fluid neared bottom of the sump trying to pump last bit out couldn’t overcome head pressure. Put this back flow preventer in and it worked great, no more thumping. Hopefully this lasts, but for the price you can’t go wrong. Not sure why it’s clear, maybe so you can see when it fails? Hope that’s not for quite sometime.

The mold has seams where the seals are , lightly sanded like reviews had mentioned so No leaks I’m really hoping it lasts a long time because it is silent when the pump shuts off ! We used to hear a bang threw out the second floor before so I def recommend this quiet valve .

Since it’s used for a sewage ejected system the clear plastic isn’t very attractive. But it works very well. Ultra quiet

What a difference. It lives up to the hype. Wish I would have know about this quite valve when the system was installed.
