Fitting Whale non return valve --- will water pressure be red...

[brianr]

Slightly altering water connections and would like to fit Whale non return valve to caravan fresh water system. I use an Aquaroll and Whale submersible pump. If a Whale non return valve is fitted into pipe system will water pressure be reduced or affected in any way.

Any additional restriction in the pipework from a submersible centrifugal pump will reduce the "pressure" or more correctly the flow at the tap.

However the Whale non return valve will not create much resistance so I doubt if it will be that noticeable.

Hi guys im marty from whale it will reduce the pressure and flow but as already said not by a noticable amount.

Good Luck

Thanks JTQ and Martin for your info. Pleased that water pressure would hardly be affected as I did not want my high pressure shower to become a "dribble". Marty (from Whale)you have already today sent two emails to my inbox regarding onboard tank. A special Thanks to Whale pumps for all their help.
