[C320-list] 3WAY VALVE HEAD SHOWER SUMP

[Bill Culbertson]

I thought the same as Chris when I 1st read this - that you were talking about 
the Y selector valve on the back wall of the under head sink cabinet.  But now I 
think you are talking about the seacock handle.

There are two seacocks under the head sink.  One is for the sink drain 
exclusively.  The other is for the head, shower sump & fridge drain.  This other 
seacock has a handle which goes to the left or straight up-and-down or to the 
right.    I do not believe there is any significance to the right position or 
else it is the same as the left position (as you say).  I believe that 
horizontal handle is closed and vertical handle is open.  I have only ever used 
left-horizontal so I can't say what right horizontal does - if anything.

Can someone explain to me the 3 way valve functions for the subject valve. I 
know that fully left is off,vertical will operate head flush water, and it 
appears to me this position will also pump out the shower bilge. Fully right 
seems to be off as well?

Thanks
