Video Transcript for Feature Breakdown: Valterra Check Valve for RV Fresh Water Systems

Hello, neighbors and friends. Steven here, with etrailer.com. Today we're talking fresh water systems, specifically the Valterra check valve for your RV fresh water system. So a check valve, if you're not familiar, simply lets water flow in one direction only, and it prevents water from coming back through that connection. So in this case, it's gonna prevent city water, or your connection, from filling and overflowing into your fresh water tank, or rather overflowing your fresh water tank. And it's gonna prevent water from back flowing out of your hot water heater.

So it's a nice brass construction. It's lead free, very safe to use. As you can see, it's got the arrow for the direction of the travel of water flow. You've got a 1/2 inch MPT by 1/2 inch FPT. So 1/2 inch male pipe threads, two 1/2 inch female pipe threads on the inside.

Now the check valve inside there, that is spring loaded. It's hard to see with my finger there, but basically you push that down, water pressure's gonna push that down, open it, and allow the water to flow in to the opposite side. So brass construction. One year warranty by Valterra. This again, folks, is the check valve for your RV fresh water systems.

I'm Steven. Thanks for watchin'.
