"How durable and reliable are these check valves?"

There are many qualities of plastics, and you can be assured that we only ship top-of-the line plastics. Having said that, these are made out of plastic and this material has pro's and con's. These will degrade in sunlight over time, unlike brass valves. These, under normal wear and tear, in most situations, "should" last at least 2-7 years. Quality brass valves will last longer under most conditions (not in aggressive water conditions). For sewage, ponds, fountains and sump pump applications, we believe that our above PVC swing checks are the best product for the conditions that these are exposed to.

"What does Comp x Comp, Fips x Fips and Solv x Solv mean?"
Solv x Solv = solvent (glue to hold in place) type; Comp x Comp = compression style is easy to install; Fips x Fips = is threaded (female) style.

"Spring vs Swing?"
Spring loaded means it has a spring. It tends to seal better (best for potable water pumps), but the spring will wear out easier and does take more pressure to open it. A swing check works on the gravity principle (more reliable in the long run), and it take less pressure to open it (best for sump, pond, fountain, sewage pumps). A swing check should only be mounted horizontally (a spring check may be installed horizontally or vertically with the water flow going up).

"How do I glue PVC fittings and valves to the pipe?"
The majority of PVC manufacturers recommend that the installer follow the instructions for the cement and primer that is being used. Their instructions are usually found on the label of the container.

"Italy, and the spring and first love all together should suffice to make the gloomiest person happy." - Bertrand Russell
