CHECK VALVES
Environmental resistance: For marine outfalls, specify algae and barnacle resistance to ensure the correct material. Confirm temperature ratings wherever the valve will see extreme heat or cold.
Supplier capability: Look for a supplier with substantial inventory, the capacity to deliver custom work within a workable timeframe when required, and responsive customer support.

Bottom profile: A sloping bottom is recommended for solids-laden flow because it leaves no standing, stagnant water in the valve. Full-port designs further reduce head loss and improve flushing.
Flush ports: Flanged inline duckbills with top and bottom flush ports let maintenance crews clear an obstruction without dismantling the valve, a significant operational advantage over swing gate designs.
Using the replacement cycle
A worn flap gate or failing swing check is the logical point to evaluate every option, rather than reordering the valve that has always been there. In many outfalls, pump stations, and drainage structures, a rubber duckbill check valve is an engineering upgrade. A local manufacturer can provide engineering data, charts, and graphs that answer specification questions and can assist with elastomer selection. It is also worth confirming the valves are in stock or readily available before scheduling work, since a supply gap is the most avoidable delay on a project when the crew is ready to go.
