Bypass on 2009 grey wolf

I am wondering where the bypass valve is on my 2009 grey wolf 22bh?

What bypass are you looking for? The hot water heater? If so ours is right at the heater. There are three valves. One is on the blue (cold) line, one on the red (hot) line and one connecting the two. The connecting valve is closed and the other two open for normal useage.

Yes, the water heater. I don't have them on my water heater. I think it is inside in the storage area under the couch/bed

Not saying they are not there, but are you sure the camper has them? I have never had a trailer that they were not right at the heater. I do not have your trailer, just have an idea where I have seen them on previous trailers and popups.

No I'm not sure if it has them or not. I am with you. I would think they would be close to and assessable by the water heater.

You have them.
There "behind" the water heater.

Behind a false panel or door.

Agreed, a two person job. I added two struts to my bed so no it stays up...

Our is on the driver's side under the closet. To get to it you lift the bed and craw into the hole. From there we can reach the valves under the closet.

Seems those bypass valves can be anywhere! On our old 2009 Wilderness, the valves were right by the water pump under the closet mid way in the trailer behind a panel. On our new 2015 Wildcat, they are under the sink, again behind a panel, and attached to the hot water tank. In our older 1999, Tahoe 5th wheel they're just next to the hot water tank under the sink, no panel, just there. At least in the 2015, the pipes are red and blue color coded!

I've got a picture. To bypass it is a function of all three knobs- the top and bottom one closed and the middle one open. Pictured is in the operational mode or not bypassed. FWIW, I find it easier to just remove the mattress.

I have the 22bh its on the left side of the bed on top of the night stand. Four screws and the cover comes off and valves are behind the hot water heater. Little tight but you can do it.
