Bilge Check Valve?

I didnt have much slack or height to add a loop. Mine was running straight, then angled down the to the bilge. So it was almost creating a siphon if any water did get in. I just routed mine in a small hump as high as I could, ziptied it and then ran it down. I did the best I could and it seems to be helping.

I've got a one way in my boat for the bildge as well. I have my bildge line and pressure relief teed about a foot away from the dump. When I first was looking at buying my boat the previous owner didn't have check valve, and half the water from the relief was going right back down the bildge line and filling the bildge. I went to West Marine and picked up a the valve. Been working fine ever since.
