How do you set valve for return.
Seems no matter which way, I see no differance?

Please give a bit more information. Are you attempting to go from winterization mode to summer mode? Do you have a 2 valve or 3 valve system. What is the problem you are encountering. If the pump runs and you get no water out of either the H or C faucet it could be as simple as not having the 3 way valve shut allowing air to enter the pigtail - this is the line used if you winterize by using RV antifreeze.

Are you talking about the shower miser valve in your shower?

Yes. I guess it's a shower mixer.
To return water, rather than waste.

Your responses are making me think. First outing with this unit. I'm on city water. Therefore why would I need to conserve water? My understanding it is to return to fresh water tank until warm water temp is reached. Can try using it when dry camping.
Now curious on how it functions.
