Jim,
Thanks for the info. I've checked locally and can't seem to find an in-line
check valve. The closest I could find was a hose-line anti-siphon valve that
would screw into the city water inlet. Do you know of a source for an in-line
check valve? Would an RV store carry them (the nearest one is a couple of
hours from here).
Thanks again!
Roger
