Hi all, I’m currently redoing my equipment pad and noticed that the manual for my filter (Pentair Triton TR100C) states that a check valve must be installed between the filter and the heater to prevent damage to the filter. I had already planned on installing a flowvis check valve directly after the pump (to maintain suction when powered off) and a standard check valve downstream the Mastertemp 250 heater (as part of my heater bypass and to have protection between the heater and my IC40 SWG). I‘d prefer to keep the check valves to a minimum, so I am wondering what your thoughts are on Pentair’s filter valve recommendation, and if any of you have felt the need to install a check valve between your filter and heater. Thanks!
