Re: Aux compressor check valve
Reply #2 –
Have you actually removed the "straight through brass fitting" and verified that it is not a check valve. They could appear very similar externally.
I don't know what "Michele's pictures" you are referring to. Where are they located?
Can you post the page from the "manual" showing the diagram of your aux air compressor? Over the years, HWH has supplied several different compressors, and each variation is plumbed differently.
I am providing a link below to a .pdf diagram of the aux compressor on a 600 Series leveling system. Your compressor may be different.
On my diagram, if the check valve (4) was replaced by a straight male/male nipple, it would result in air flowing backwards from the suspension to the compressor. This might cause non-stop compressor running - I'm not sure. I'd need to experiment to find out.
