          Answer This Question

          A:  Hello, The PVC check valve requires 900g (31.75 ozf) to open. If your pump emits at least that much pressure, you should be good to go.

            Answer This Question

            A:  Hi Piman, This check valve is not recommended for use on gravity drain lines. It takes pressure to open the valve.

            by|Feb 28, 2019

              A:  If this is spring loaded I would say no. Other types have a flapper style mechanism which would work better for gravity feed.
