  • Page 8: Bypass Operation

    The bypass valve is typically used to isolate the control valve from the plumbing system’s water pressure in order to perform control valve repairs or maintenance. The SmartChoice bypass valve is particularly unique in the water treat- ment industry due to its versatility and state of the art design features. The 1” full flow bypass valve incorporates four positions including a diagnostic position that allows service work on a pressurized system while still providing untreated bypassed water to the facility or residence.
