Check Valve – Always install a new check valve
when installing a sump pump. If your check
valve does not have an 1/8" anti-airlock hole,
drill one in the discharge pipe just above where it
screws into the pump discharge. Be sure to install
the check valve so that the flow will be away
from the pump.

2A. Install the discharge plumbing and check
valve, using PTFE pipe thread sealant tape -
NOT pipe joint compound.
2B. Tighten the pipe into the pump (hand tight
+ 1-1/2 turns).
2C. Install a check valve in the vertical pipe to
prevent flow backwards through the pump
when it shuts off. To prevent airlocking the
pump, drill a 1/8" (3.2 mm) hole in the
discharge pipe just above where it screws into
the pump discharge. Install the check valve
above this hole, but keep it as close to the
pump as possible. Be sure the hole is below
the waterline and below the check valve.
2D. To reduce noise and vibration, cut the
discharge pipe near the pump and fasten
a short length of rubber hose (1-7/8" (48
mm) I.D., e.g. radiator hose) into it with
hose clamps.
