  • This fixed my leak and now I don't have to buy a new water softener
After over a month of troubleshooting, and reading numerous reviews, the ones I saw recently were right. I had several leaks. I fixed the first with replacement flex pipe 1"FIP X24" and fixed one but still had one at the Bypass valve. Reviewers said after a couple or more years, and sitting in a hot garage, the bypass valve can become warped and could begin to leak. A new bypass valve fixed the problem. For reference purposes my softener is a Whirlpool WHES30 LE31. My bypass valve has threaded connections and uses a Part number 7129871. This is for the smaller unit and not a high flow one. Hope my info helps someone. ... show more

  • Perfect Fit Like The OEM
My old bypass valve was hard to use & was binding. This device was a perfect fit and easy to use. Highly recommended.

  • Perfect fit
Perfect drop in for my Rheem water softener. Much better threads than the original. No more leaks!

  • Fits my old Kenmore
I have an older Kenmore Ultrasoft 180. This valve was a perfect fit. My water softener first filled with water and I could see it was leaking at the valve. I thought it was a washer, but two new ones did not fix the leak. I then noticed that there was a pinhole leak in the bottom or the valve body and I could see a hairline crack in the bottom that I had not noticed previously. This valve solved the problem and I'm back in business. ... show more

  • Easy to install
It's pretty straight forward, I do like the pull handle, better than the one we had previously. The one we had installed after 17 years the seals gave out, so every time you would turn it off or on it would spray water out of the side. This is an easy install for anyone, turn the water off, hopefully you shut off valves going to your softener and from your main supply, the rest is straight forward, Don't forget the clips, better to have them and not need them, than it is to need them and not have them. ... show more

  • Exact Replacement Part for ESD-518 Water Softener q
Arrived earlier, then quoted time frame, which really was a bonus! Second bonus was that it was an exact replacement part. I looked everywhere for a bypass valve for a water softener and cannot find one that was reasonably priced as this. Thank you so much for keeping this in stock and shipping so soon!! ... show more

  • Odd Sized Washers
This valve works well, but beware that the rubber seals (washers) are an odd size and not available at your local big box store. We have a local "hard to find" hardware store that did have the seals, but "Palmers Hardware" is not your average Hardware store. Unlike the big box that 10,000 items of one kind, Palmers has 10,000 one-of-a-kind items. Easy to install, average quality, and fits well. Recommended. ... show more

  • Solved water leak
Water was leaking from the pressure side so I replaced the O rings first. Could not see any crack in shut off value but professional recommend replacement. New valve fixed problem. Cheap fix compared to calling repair man.
