Hello, everybody. This is Jeff at etrailer.com. Today, we're gonna take a look at the Valterra Lead-Free Brass Check Valve for your RV Fresh Water Systems. Has a half inch male pipe thread on one end, and a half inch male pipe thread on the other end. Now basically, if your city water connection is causing your fresh water tank to overflow, then you do want to get a new check valve. Basically, you'll install this check valve to stop the water from backing up and keep it flowing in the right direction.
And when you do install this, if you look closely, I'm gonna sort of point it out, you should be able to see it right there. It has an arrow pointing that's telling you the water flow goes that way. Because you can see, here's your check valve. If you push that, the pressure will push that to open it. You can see on this end how, when I push it, it opens.
This will also prevent water from backflowing out of your hot water heater. This is a brass, and it is a lead-free brass construction. It is safe to use. And again, the fitting size to go over again. Half inch male pipe thread on this end, half inch male pipe thread on this end.
But that should do it for the review on the Valterra Lead-Free Brass Check Valve for your RV Fresh Water System.
good product
Hard to find part at a great price and quick delivery.
Easy install and worked great.
Works great
fresh water system to stop .back flow works great
Haven’t installed it yet. It’s winter temperatures now may not install until spring now. So can’t verify operability but it is just what I needed. Fast delivery
So far it seems to work after using teflon tape. Brass to plastic doesn't seal well. Pump did pickup the water and am testing to be sure of back flow of city water to the fresh tank.
Used this to "fix" the faulty check valve in a ShurFlo pump. I just installed it inline with the old, bad valve. A cheaper, and better solution, than just replacing the pump.
I'd give it 5 stars, as it was priced right and fixed the problem.
The Check valve is what I expected and the order and delivery were seamless, I have dealt with etrailer before and my previous experience was excellent.
I wish someone would come up with a better design, I have gone through two of these check valves including the original plastic one that came on the Suburban HW heater, the plastic inner parts do not have a long life, If I'm lucky I will get two seasons out of a Valve. For that reason I ordered a spare.
Perfect fit for my Suburban SW10DEL hot water heater. This one seems quality built so we will see if it last longer than the OEM.
I will install this with my RV water heater along with pex tubing and threaded connectors, which I am confident will prevent water leaks during my travels.
This part hasn't been installed very long, but so far so good. The quality looks very good and i expect it to work well for years to come.
