Be very careful with those check valves. A freind of mine has them and noticed when doing a water change that they had started to leak, bad enough to cause concern for sure. It took a while for them to get to that point but all it takes is a tube worm or whatever to make them malfunction and they might as well not be there when the power goes out.
