Am I Missing Something?
I decided to sanitize our fresh water system today for the first time.
When I went to bypass the hot water heater, I found only two valves, not three.
In the photo attached, there appears to be some kind of extra piece at the outlet port of the heater, and I wonder if it's a check valve, as it MIGHT do the same thing as a ball valve if it doesn't leak backward. Of that, I'm not sure, however.
If you were in my shoes, would you add another ball valve in the outlet piece of red PEX?
