Ease of installation. Very quiet.

As you are reading this review I was between this and Campbell's Silent Check Valve. I got Campbell first and that in itself was an interesting journey. See this review for more information. This little device was extremely easy to install. The rubber ends of the hoses make a huge difference, they don't leak and make the job 100x easier even if your hoses aren't perfectly cut. No primer or glue required. The valve itself is VERY quiet and works as advertised. If you are wondering what to takeโ€ฆ

Pros
  • GOLS Certified
Cons
  • Clarity

This valve is really quiet

I just replaced my original check valve with this one and was amazed at the transformation. Our drain pump is under our bedroom so it's easy to hear. We lived with the noise for many years until we replaced the pump about 2 years ago. The noise was drastically reduced, but you could still hear a slight gurgle when the pump started and a double tap of the check valve when the pump shut off. After installing this valve, there is no double thumping and almost no gurgling. That's great. I also like

Silent check valve lives up to its name!

My drain pump runs a lot and it's right under my bedroom. I was always annoyed by the loud water hammer from my old check valves and couldn't find a solution. When I saw this check valve at Revain I was intrigued but skeptical. I ordered it and it came faster than promised and I installed it quickly. I was surprised! Such a simple design, but IT WORKS! The only sound I hear from the swamp now is water flowing through the pipes. If you are also annoyed by the loud rattling of the check valve, Iโ€ฆ

Pros
  • High marks for support and durability from testers
Cons
  • Can't remember but there was something

Good Valve: Rough Plumbing

later The valve was easy to install, the valve aka flipper with the spring seems a bit strong but I understand why you need a stronger spring when you install them horizontally rather than vertically. But vertically the force of the pump at the bottom should push the valve, which I haven't measured, at least 5 pounds if not more. The valve seemed very solid, I like to see that the water has no problems. The actual seal appeared to be plastic on plastic with no rubber or high or low differences,

Pros
  • handy thing
Cons
  • I'll write

So quiet, even compared to other "silent " check valves.

wow! Just wow! This check valve is incredibly quiet. I have a main drain pump and a backup pump. I have a check valve on each. It was made by a different company and looked different - black with a separate cylindrical side chamber facing up. It's been said to be "quiet," but it's not. I replaced those two check valves with Raybend ones and no more knocking. It doesn't make any noise at all. Wonderful product that works exactly as sold and so easy to install with very clear easy to followโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Great for a small home
Cons
  • The list will go on.

Don't listen to this knocking anymore. Take it.

I have lived in this house for 15 years. As time went by, the pounding of my drain pump got louder and louder. One day was enough for me. Thinking it was time for a new check valve, I checked the Revain for a replacement. I didn't realize check valves were even needed for silent drain pumps. I read the reviews on this product and bought it. It was exactly the same size as the original and I quickly pasted it in. It has recently rained and the drain pump has been running a lot. Now I'm sittingโ€ฆ

Pros
  • nice item
Cons
  • only available in white

Completely silent! - Water pumps, parts and accessories

I couldn't believe they actually worked when I first hooked them up. I have two sump pumps, main and standby. First I replaced the check valve on the primary pump. When I started the pump I didn't hear the water flow through the check valve and there was absolutely no sound when the valve closed. The standard check valve that the plumber installed on my new build made a noticeable "pop" with the amount of water going into my sump every time it was closed, ie every 42 seconds. I knew I didn'tโ€ฆ

  • Satisfied so far
Cons
  • Modern

Took a little over three months!

The machine sent to me turned out to be scrap. After replacing the drain pump, I found that the new pump runs every 45 seconds. I thought the old check valve was bad so I replaced it with this one in early October 2019. The old valve was quieter than this one, so the overall noise level didn't impress me. I liked the fact that this valve was in a clear tube so I could see that it actually worked. On January 19, 2020, I woke up to a loud noise coming from the sump pump. Upon inspecting the pump,

Pros
  • One year trial period
Cons
  • A few little things
