Rated 5 out of 5 by from Built to last! Great spring loaded check valve made in NZ! All others available were the cheaper and less reliable flapper based ones. Well worth the difference in price!

Rated 1 out of 5 by from very poor design or build quality. i bought two of them, installed them on my two sump pump discharge pipes that merge into one outlet discharge pipe. both pipes have weep holes. when either pump is working, the weep hole on the other pipe is shooting out water. this is a complete joke and waste of money, stay away from this product!

Rated 5 out of 5 by from A case of "You get what you paid for" These are great high quality check valves. Much better that the flap type that I would buy 'cause they're cheap, but kept failing .I installed it on a battery backup sump pump. I had reservations about there not being enough pressure to overcome the spring. But I tested it & water came gushing out of my long vertical hose. I'll be adding one on my regular pump also.

Would this valve be suitable to use in pool plumbing with salty and chlorinated water constantly running through it?

Asked by: Mark
Hi, Thank you for your question. Yes, the ANKA valves (HD# 1001053666) can be used in this application. However, over time the chlorine will break down the plastics as it would with any other plastic valve. Depending on the mix of chlorine to water and toxicity level will affect lifespan and impact. Typically the mix is quite low and the valves will work effectively for many years.

Asked by: Tyler

the specs says the plunger will open at .5 psi, yet i'm running my kitchen sink faucet at max pressure against the check valve and the plunger still won't open. is there an issue with the valve?

Asked by: andrew
Thank you for your question. As the valve is not installed as it is meant to function, it's possible the test may not produce reliable or accurate results. We'd suggest testing it installed on 1-1/2" pipe, with the intended flow in the direction of the arrows on the valves. If it fails to open when installed as it is intended, it may indeed be defective, and you should return it to Home Depot Canada for a replacement under our one-year warranty.

What kind of male fittings do I need to connect this check valve to 1 1/2 inch PVC piping?

Asked by: Karl66
There are no special male fittings required. MIPT thread is NPT and works with any male fittings.

can this be used to prevent a kitchen sink in an apartment from backing up due to an overwhelmed main drain?

Asked by: Derek
This female check valve is a spring loaded non return valve which can be installed inline or at any angle. This check valve allows the fluid to flow in one direction only and ideal for pumping, marine, irrigation, domestic, agricultural and industrial applications. The valve consists of a fiberglass reinforced nylon body, female NPT threads, 316 stainless steel spring, acetyl plunger, and nitrile rubber seal and O-ring. This valve is strong and lightweight and can be taken apart for servicing.

Can this valve be installed on a open end drain to prevent rodents from entering the pipe.

Asked by: Spinman40
The valve is designed to prevent backflow, and not to prevent rodents entering a pipe.It may accomplish that, but Watts can't recommend it.
