water heater bypass
After my first time winterizing last fall, I questened the placement of the water heater shutoff and bypass valves. My hot and cold valves are placed before the bypass valve. Is this correct?

There are multiple configurations for WH bypass. One uses two 3 way valves instead of three basic shutoff valves. And other variations.
