Can Brass Check Valves Be Used in Place of Plastic Ones in Campers
Question:
Ive replaced the stock Suburban plastic valve with one of these on my one of my RVs already because it cracked and of course started leaking. I guess its a common issue. My question is since BOTH are plastic replacing the broken one was an obvious need to fix. Can I replace the other one too with brass if I make sure the flow is correct for preventative measures?

Yes of course. The Valterra Check Valve for RV Fresh Water Systems part # P23415LFVP is a pretty common upgrade when it comes to RVs. Typically they use lower end components and cracking on these can be common issues.
This has the 1/2" MPT or Male Pipe Thread to help you match up what you've got now.
