Docus ,

I don’t think they will poison themselves. I had to look up what a vacuum breaker is, never seen one in the uk, and not seen reports of anyone being poisoned due to not having one. Check valves are sometimes used (for water heaters for example) but those are silent.

My dad uses those insecticide or fertilizer things that hook up to a hose. I'm just worried about backflow into our pipes from it

Docus ,

That sounds like a bad idea to me. But a simple check valve should keep them safe i think

MrZee ,

I hate that hum too. I don’t suppose you found any solution?
