Speireag,
It sounds like what you need for your valving problem is a check
valve with a high crack pressure. I am not sure how high of a pressure
cut off you are talking about (50, 60, 80PSI?) but you might be able to
find such things. They only open up at the pressure stated and prevent
back flow at the same time. You might be able to stick a couple of them
in line with each other (two 30's makes a 60?).
Or maybe something along the lines of a pressure release valve. That is
what they have on top of water heaters, isn't it? I don't know what
kinds of flows they are rated at, though.
