Rv hot water heater bypass two valve diagram.
When the by pass system is used it takes the cold water going.
The next case is one is which you have a valve on the cold water line and a bypass valve in the middle but there is no valve on the hot water line.
What you will see instead of a valve is a brass fitting at the hot water outlet on the water heater.
Now go into your rv and find the heater from the inside.
This is called a back check valve.
Cold water comes in at the bottom and hot water comes out of the top of the heater.
The by pass system can be used to drain the water heater and to winterize the rv water system.
