[QUOTE="Quackrstackr, post: 84478, member: 437"] Your aerator/fill pump itself will not act as a plug. The plumbing acts as a sort of trap since the discharge winds up above the waterline. If that line ever comes off or ruptures below the waterline, you get a boat full of water. Any in the pump or inline check valve to prevent that from happening would have to be in the direction of flow for when you actually want to use the pump. You would never get any water out of the discharge. [/QUOTE]
