“Saw another review on this on how it saved a marriage. Thought that was hilarious until I installed one in our basement. We have a bedroom right above our sump pump and we live at the bottom of a hill. It runs every 30 seconds sometimes and always had a hammer sound each time. With this it is silent! No clunk when it turns off! It's insane how much quieter it is.”
“This is the quietest valve I've ever heard, if your having water hammer problems, look no further then this valve, I've had extreme water hammer on sump pump, this took care of the problem, it's been hooked up for 18-months and still working. I bought a extra one to have in standby just in case, but I don't really see me replacing this one, it's well built.”
“I love the fact that I didn't have to monkey around with cutting or replacing/resizing any PVC pipe! The standard Zoeller check valve and this item both fit into a 6-7/8" section in the pipe! Genius. I also very much like the fact that this cements on to the PVC ends, as opposed to the clamp/flexible PVC approach. Zoeller gets my seal of approval! And it's really quiet!”
“This valve replaced a Zoeller check valve that rattled the house. I suggest getting a PVC cutter to make straight, smooth cuts. The unions make for a pro job. House is now quiet and I find myself checking the pump to see if it’s working!”
