Normally, all water except the outside faucet lines and irrigation system water passes through the water 

filter. There are times when the water filter should be bypassed, Cul-Flo-Valv® By pass, or a 3-way 

bypass valve. You should bypass:

•  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.

•  If you are going away on vacation and want to save water by not having  

the unit recharge while you’re away.
