I need a 1" clear, true union, swing check valve for my chaeto system
Thought I'd check with you all before I order online. I can get a simple one from Corix, but they're neither union nor clear.

Canadian (BC) supplier, clear, true union check. Only issue is the smallest size is 1.5", so you'd need some 1->1.5" reducers

Thanks for the link. If that's my only option, I'll spend about the same with shipping and get a 1" from BRS

And FYI everyone, I'm not looking to flood-proof this, just stop air getting into the system during pump off

Call ocean aquatics in delta. I bought one a few months back and was in there today and saw a few there.

The unions arent clear like in your picture, but the center part is still clear so you can view the valve.

Bought a check valve today from OA
Not impressed with their hardware stock levels. I first bought a 1-1/2' when I wanted a 1" valve.
I had to return later in the day to exchange the valve as the fittings were produced with the wrong size.
I wanted a 1', returned a 1-1/2" and took home a 3/4".
Not much stock in store. Place is a mess.
Lots of stuff to look at in their frag tanks. I will go back for goodies later.
Overall, not impressed. But, they have more stuff to look at/buy than some others.
I wish other local stores had frag tanks.
