Check valve on lake source supply line

16 years ago

Am jetting a 2" water supply line underground to a large lake. Have seen and heard different opinions on placement of the check valve and need clarification.

Some say the check valve should be mounted vertically, while others say it is okay to mount it horizontally.

Some say the check valve should be mounted out in the lake immediately after the intake grill, while others say it is okay to mount it immediately before the pump.

Does it make a difference?
