    does anyone have the problem of water backflow even with check vavles?? i am using 2 currently.. one before and one after the bubble counter but it seems that water can still go thru the check vavle???? the vavle is new as it came with my co2 set from nature.. is this normal or i shld get a better vavle or its spoilt and i need to replace it?

    try checking if u fit either one of the valves in the incorrect position along the tube. water shouldn't get past the valves. if the valves are set correctly and water still leaks through i suggest u either get new ones or go back to NA and ask them about it.

    no water should not flow back past the check valve.
    i have used some which had flow back problem too.

    anyway, i got one from petmart which is mage of blue plastic and this one works fine.
    they have another one made from metal.
    check with ben.

    i don't think there's others. the ones i see are the green or black types. by the way, route told me u got the whole CO2 set from NA. what's the cost of the set? and what comes with the set?
