    White Flakes

    3-Way Valve

    I don’t have any valves in my plumbing. Should I install any? If so, what advantages are there to having 3-way valves on your return and/or pressure lines?

    I’m not sure where you are located but I think Duda delivers for around $116 total.

    Right around $103. Not sure if I saved much money by driving out there vs getting shipped, but I took my mom with me and she like to get out and ride. It’s 35-45 min drive from me.
