Expert Reply:
Currently we do not have a video showing the installation process for the 3-Way RV Water Heater Bypass Valve # 37262255 on PEX tubing. Typically this part is used as a replacement part for the bypass that either already came in your Camper or if the bypass on the Camco RV Winterization Quick-Turn Water Heater Bypass Kit # CAM35983 became damaged.
With the Camco kit you get everything to detach the inlet lines on the back of the water heater and install the bypass kit. Most factory set ups will have multiple on/off water shut offs that get confusing when it comes time to winterize. This kit simplifies the process so you can visibly see what position the valve is in.
The factory connections are generally barb style connectors that use band clamps to hold the fittings in place. These types of connectors and supplies can be found at your local hardware stores. For a simpler connector I recommend looking at the Shark Bite style connectors as they will simply press on and create a water tight seal. These can also be found at your local hardware store.
