  bought two of the George Fisher Wye check valves. can I install them horizontal? I know some check valves only work well in a vertical position.

  Bulk Reef Supply Hey Trent,
  There is a correct orientation when using them horizontally, but they can be used in the horizontal position.

  In your "ADDING A SUMP AND OVERFLOW" video, how did you attach the unions to the check valve that you show on the tank?

  Bulk Reef Supply Hey Greg,
  The George Fisher Wye valves are street fittings, meaning that the ends of the check valve are the same outside diameter as the pipe itself, so it is meant to glue right into fittings (like the unions). You would actually need some sort of fitting (like a union) to connect the check valve to pipe.

  I read that these check valves can be placed on a horizontal position and does not need to be in a vertical position from up to down. Is this true?

  Bulk Reef Supply Hey Joshua,
  It can be installed either horizontally or vertically. Just make sure that the chamber with the stopper is orientated in the correct dimension.
