Tunze Osmolator Problem Back Flow/De-priming

Anyone ever have a problem with what seems like the Osmolator will flow back into the ATO FW Reservoir after it turns the pump off? This is the only thing I can think of that is happening. I have a head pressure (think that's what its is called?) of about 2 feet from pump to outlet. It doesnt happen all the time but a couple of times in the month I have owned it, it has happened and the pump either doesn't get water going at all or it takes 30 seconds to a minute. The first time it happened I thought it was cause I had the pump set too slow and I adjusted it all the way up and it still didnt pump water up and out. Im not sure if it became air locked or something. I have thought about buying a check valve to see if that would help but one I'm not totally sure this is the problem and two not sure which check valve to use. Anyone ever dealt with this issue?
Hi , I’m getting ready to purchase a Tunze Nano 3152 osolator . I’m looking for a good check valve and having difficulties finding the corect one. Did you find one that works for you. If you would be so kind to share your information. I’d be very grateful. Thank you so much
