Would RecommendThis adjustable check valve worked perfectly. This piece made it very easy to install the new pump without alot of extra work and expense. We live in the midwest and have had so much rain. The sump pump has pretty much ran non-stop. The valve has stayed put and it hasn't leaked at all.

Check valve works well
Would RecommendThis check valve fits 1 1/2" and 1 1/4" fittings. The pieces can be rotated top to bottom to fit PVC and copper pipes. The height offers flexibility to make replacement easy. I recommend this check valve for a fast and easy fix.

Sumpj Pump Check Valve

Good product but it didn’t fit my need
Would RecommendGreat product and easy to use however because of the height of my project the flexible ends cause the pipe to lay over so I need a solid PVC check valve.

not flexible
Would Not Recommendtoo rigid to clamp well seems to be slick plastic not rubber. my old one was rubber for the clamped parts
jaythejudge,
The check valve, model #148102 is made of rubber. There is not a lot of flexibility in the valve die to what it is. If you have any...

Leaks
Would Not RecommendBought this today and before finalizing the installation, tested it. The outflow worked fine. But as a check valve, it leaked and allowed the column of water to slowly back into the sump. I give it a 2 because perhaps it will stop some noise, but as a check valve my conclusion is that it does not work. My recommendation to LOWES is to test the products you sell to make sure they are fit for purpose.
