No more hammer sound

Would Recommend

Wish I replaced my brass check valve sooner! Only one day in, but no more hammer sound! Easy to install.

Zoeller Plastic Check Valve

Would Recommend

I've been living with the booming noise of my sump pump for years. I didn't know about quiet check valves. This one is very quiet and so far works great. No more booming and my nephew said it was easy to install it only required a flat head screwdriver and a hacksaw to cut off a little excess pvc pipe. I'm very happy.

quiet

Would Recommend

for years I've put up with the constant banging of my old check valves but at least I knew that my sump pump was working. I installed this check valve and it is so very quiet that now I worry that it is still working. Just kidding. I really like it.

SILENT and it just works

Would Recommend

My sump discharge has an 8' vertical run to the outside, and I've always had "clunking" issues whenever the pump stops. I have purchased different brands of "clunkless" check valves over the years from different home centers (including Lowes), but they only last about a year, and none truly eliminated the clunk- just quieted it down somewhat. I came across this product by accident looking for something else but bought it to try something different. Well, I can honestly say that this completely e...

I have had this product for several weeks now and it is living up to it’s quiet operation marketing. I replaced my basement watchdog Clunkless valves which failed after 2 yrs. with the Zoeller. I have had two basement watchdog check valves which did not live up to its clunkless operation hype. I hope this Zoeller valve works better.

Zoeller Check Valve

Would Recommend

I use to listen to our sump pump go off every couple minutes during wet times and then hear an echo in the gutter drains for about 5-10 seconds that it is tied in to. The pump is directly below our master bedroom. I went down into the crawl space and noticed the builder didn't even install a check valve above the pump so the echo in the gutter drains was the water running backwards back into the sump pit. I think most of the water was returning to the pit and only a small portion was making it ...

No more hammer!

Would Recommend

We built our home 3 years ago. The plummer installed a regular check valve on the sump pump and it produced an unbelievably loud hammer noise when the pump stopped. It was annoying since the sump pump was in the basement under our bedroom. I just found out about the Zoeller check valve and installation took about 10 minutes tops. When the sump pump stops, there is NO NOISE at all. The Zoeller check valve certainly works exactly like it is supposed to! Glad I purchased it!

What a difference

Would Recommend

It's hard to believe what a difference this check value makes. I installed a batter backup sump pump and originally purchase a cheap check value. What a mistake, it's hard to describe how loud a cheap check value is, but you do not want one. The Zoeller check value is a few bucks more plus I had to have it shipped to my local Lowes but it was worth it. Now we sleep during the night instead of being remined that the pump just turned off (over and over during the night).
