Just picked up a new 10 Cougar 318SAB. Just now familiarizing myself with it. Mostly done, but did note that the unit lacks a water pump bypass valve. This makes winterizing more difficult. I plan to install a bypass valve, but the waterline hose diameter that runs from the pump to the fresh water tank, appears to be a larger type hose than the other plumbing. Has anyone installed a bypass valve in this larger type piping?

I can't believe that Keystone would leave out this bypass valve. Shame on them.
