Superior Pump Slip-On Check Valve 1-1/2"

I purposely ordered this check valve on line because I didn't want a 1 1/4 inch check valve with hose adapters to 1 1/2 inch, which is what Home Depot and Lowes was selling. I wanted a full 1 1/2 inch inside diameter check valve like I removed from my sump pump. If you remove the 2 rubber hoses on this Superior check valve there is a check valve that is actually 1 1/4 inside diameter that also fits a 1 1/2 inch hose. Superior pump shouldn't be selling this as a 1 1/2 inch check valve. It is a 1 1/4 check valve fit with 1 1/2 inch hoses.

Received my new pump last night and installed it this morning with a forecast of more torrential rain.
My old pump (not StormPro) had developed an intermittent electrical problem and I could no longer trust it to keep working during a storm. Pump failure would mean another big bill to fix a drowned heating plant!

I am a professional engineer and this little pump has almost twice the discharge as my old pump at the same horsepower. The ABS discharge pipe goes through a 90 degree fitting into an outside cistern and there was so much momentum reaction at the outlet that the pipe rose 6" when the pump was running I had to put a concrete slab on it to hold it down!

I can tell that I won't have any problems with this pump keeping up in a torrential rain.
I also like the design of the fully adjustable external float switch.

Great product and very timely delivery. Thanks!
