I had 3 brass gate valves in my pool plumbing when I bought the house, they were all seized up and I couldn’t adjust any of them. I replaced them with brass ball valves. About 2 months later a hole corroded through the side of one of the valves. The hole opened up to about a 1/4inch and had a greenish color. I replaced them again with pvc ball valves and haven’t noticed an issue in over a year. I currently added a tablet Chlorinator and a check valve before it for the de filter. A few days ago, I heard a bunch of metal noise at the check valve. Today the noise is gone, but now I can smell a strong chlorine smell when I purged air out of my filter. Could my check valve be bad? Do I have an issue with corrosion? What would cause this? Thanks!
Corrosion?

Sounds like your check value failed judging my the chlorine smell in the filter. Is it one you can take apart?
