Almost, just got another section done...BUT....stupid me wipes off some excess cement with a towel, then towel goes into fan knocking over the cleaner.....so now I gotta go back to Lowes where I just came from and get another can

Trust me I know it's always something. I had thought same with my plumbing. Like I redid all the thread tape on ever seam but forgot the one at the pump outflow. So had to tear it all apart there and of course I was out of thread tape so another trip to Lowes. At least it is only like 5 minutes for me. But it was bad when multiple people were saying. Hey back again are we. Yes I am and I hope it is the last time this time.

Its right up the road from me as well..

Well I'm back and back at it and will post an update. I also got a drain pan for a water heater, just got done putting the filter on it. Now back at the plumbing

Any reason to put a check valve anywhere on this system?

Look at it this way, if you remove the pump a column of water will shower the floor. Input to the pump will continue to syphon water out of the tank onto the floor. Valve....check valve?????
