I installed check valves on our shower feed lines to eliminate the backflow issues that cause the hot/cold blast when the shower head shutoff is used.
Thanks. Where did you install check valves? I assume it doesn't matter where you install them?
I installed them as close to the faucet inlets as possible. On my setup, there's only a couple of inches of PEX between the check valves and the faucets. I used SeaTech quick connect valves from Fresh Water Systems, but SharkBite, etc., likely have similar valves.
SeaTech Check Valve - 1/2 CTS
