supplied) to fitting and run tubing to drain. Do not elevate the
Water Softener/Filter overflow tube higher than 3 inches below
bottom of overflow fitting. Do not “tie” this overflow tube into the
drain tube of the Water Softener/Filter control valve. Overflow
tube must be a direct, separate line from fitting to drain.
IMPORTANT:
Never insert a drain line directly into a drain, sewer line or
ptrap. Always allow an air gap between the drain line of the
waste water to prevent the possibility of sewage being back-
siphoned in the Water Softener/Filter.

11. WATER SOFTENER/FILTER BYPASS VALVE
The Water Softener/Filter bypass valve is typically used to
isolate the Water Softener/Filter control valve from the
plumbing system, water pressure in order to perform Water
Softener/Filter control valve repairs or maintenance. The
bypass valve is particularly unique due to its versatility and
design features. The 1 inch Water Softener/Filter full flow
bypass valve incorporates four positions including a
diagnostic position that allows to work on a pressure system
while still providing untreated bypass valve water to the
residence. The bypass valve is completely non-metallic, all
composite design. The Water Softener/Filter bypass valve
consists of two interchangeable plug valves that are
operated independently by red arrow shaped handles. The
handles identify the water flow direction of the water. The
plug valves enable the bypass valve to operate in four
positions.
