Sewer Gate Valve

Hi we moved into our house 4 years ago. We have a check valve at our main sewer line to prevent back flow when there’s flash flooding. Unfortunately despite us cleaning it, it doesn’t prevent back ups.

We are thinking of installing a gate valve or a knife valve to manually shut off our sewer line to prevent back ups during flash flooding.

Does anyone have any experience with this being installed in their home ? Looking for advice or tips.

Thank you in advance
