When I operate the water heater, hot water backs up into the cold water piping.

Mods For Cold Water On Install A Check

The only way I can think to solve this problem is to install a check valve at the cold water input pipe to the water heater.

Youre right on the money with the solution Adding a check valve leading directly into the cold inlet at the rear of the water heater will indeed negate the migration of heated water out of the heater through the cold inlet.

This process is exacerbated by a siphoning effect when you open the cold faucet to the sink.

They have a history of distorting and for chronic failure when positioned near a heat source (the hot water in the heater).

Some plastic check valves, or any type of valve for that matter, can fail and remain permanently open or permanently closed due to the deterioration of the internal seals.
