When and How
to Bypass Your
Water Filter
Normally, all water except outside lines passes through the water filter. There are times when the water filter
should be bypassed, using the Cul-Flo-Valv® Bypass, or a three-way bypass valve. You should bypass:
1. If lines to outside faucets do not bypass the water filter, and you do not want to waste
filtered water on lawn sprinkling or other outside uses.
2. If you are going away on vacation and do not want the unit to recharge.
Bypass Valve
In the back of Culligan water filter is a Cul-Flo-Valv® Bypass valve. To bypass the unit,
turn the blue knob clockwise. To return to soft water service, turn the blue knob counter-clockwise.
