Can your ultrafiltration whole house for well water be discharged into existing plumbing with a one way valve? My current water softener does the his through a 2 inch pipe with a one way valve or does it need a physical air gap?

Hello - any UF system should have an air gap when connecting to drain. If you want to connect directly to a drain with no air gap, it will still function but if the drain ever backs up, you risk contaminating the UF system and your household water. This is same with the water softener, from a plumbing code standpoint a check valve does not replace an air gap, however it will still work. thanks for asking about this.
