Vacuum Breakers Leaking

Recommended Posts

Found 2 leaking vacuum breakers on the Tank Flush lines for Grey/black tanks. They are above the water connection bay behind a closet. They leak when flushing the tanks. Are they necessary? Can't I pipe bypass them and add a check valve at the hose connection selector in the wet bay? Looking for advice.

IMO a check valve would work just as well, that's what I plan to do if/when my vacuum breaker fails.

When mine failed, I replaced it with a brass one from lowes.com.  They usually don't have the brass ones in stock at the stores.
