I want to add a check valve to my system. Reading the reviews(amazon) both pentair and hayward have about 10% 1 star reviews, maybe they're cheap knockoffs bought online, not sure. Is there some brand(oem necessary?) or place to buy one that will last at least a few years. It seems like the valve spring is often the cause of failure. Recommendations appreciated, thanks.
 
Cal,

Keep in mind that more than 10% of the people that post negative reviews on Amazon are total morons so that would not worry me at all.. That said, if I were buying pool valves today, they would all be Jandy valves.

Thanks,

Jim R.
