dear deapblue76
in case of dual plate wafer type check valve there is no problem and it is recommended by some vendore also but for
tilting disk I think this is not desirable.
according to me if your check valve is wafer type you can
change the type of the valve to dual plate because there is
no spicific difference between thise two.
