I have a 2013 RP178. During de-winterization which was done by the previous owner, I was working on getting the water system flushed and sanitized. Everything was going well until I tried to get water into and out of the water heater. Is htere a water heater bypass valve somewhere? I haven't been able to find it. Any help will be appreciated!

Yes. It will be on the blue pex line somewhere around the water heater. Here's a video that should help you https://www.google.com/search?q=water+heater+bypass+valve+Rpod&rlz=1C5MACD_enUS1090US1090&oq=water+heater+bypass+valve+Rpod&gs_lcrp=EgZjaHJvbWUyBggAEEUYOTIICAEQABgWGB4yDQgCEAAYhgMYgAQYigUyDQgDEAAYhgMYgAQYigUyCggEEAAYogQYiQUyCggFEAAYogQYiQUyBwgGEAAY7wXSAQoxMzQxM2owajE1qAIJsAIB8QVWMHr9uKWkQPEFVjB6_bilpEA&sourceid=chrome&ie=UTF-8#fpstate=ive&vld=cid:61a1cf19,vid:68HG-5TwOuQ,st:13
