Again - I agree w/ djmarchand... My Mainship has valves on many of the above waterline through hulls. I don't believe any include a vented loop - but not positive / haven't seen any...see ABYC below re: bilge pumps / systems
ABYC Excerpt from H.22
22.8.5

As installed, pump discharge capacity may be educed by such factors as
a. length of discharge piping, and/or
b. number and radius of bends, and/or
c. roughness of the interior surfaces of piping and fittings, and/or
d. reduction in cross-sectional area of discharge system components such as check
valves and thru-hulls.
22.8.6
The discharge location shall be above the maximum heeled waterline, or
22.8.7
the discharge may be located below the maximum heeled waterline if the discharge line is provided with both of the following:
22.8.7.1
a seacock installed in accordance with the requirements of ABYC H-27, Seacocks, Thru-Hull
Connections, and Drain Plugs, and
22.8.7.2
a vented loop or other means to prevent siphoning into the boat. A check valve shall not be used for this purpose....
