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.
