Check valve install on Rio Hyper Flow pump

What is the capacity of the sump? It looks to be around 20 gallons or so which should be able to contain any backflow if it is operating around 2/3 full which it looks like the baffle on the return section appears to be set at. How full are you running it? What size is your display, length and width?

Where are your returns plumbed at? Photos would help.
 
A photo would definitely help. I have two returns with a small hole drilled under the 90º elbow. The drains are set so that only a small amount of water back flows. If we see what your sump and lines look like I'm sure we can come up with a plan to ease your mind.
