There is disclosed a unique water treatment system which incorporates a unique primary valve. The primary valve comprises an interconnected first part and second part. The first part attaches to a water source and provides untreated water to water treatment units which are controlled by the second part of the primary valve. Untreated water flows to a first water treatment unit and subsequently through a valve to the second part of the primary valve and to use or to a second water treatment unit. From the second water treatment unit the water flows to the second part of the primary valve and to use. The second part of the primary valve has a unique bore and slideable shaft valve structure. The water treatment units can purify the water and/or add substances to the water.
1) A primary valve for use in a water treatment system comprising a valve body, the valve body having a first part and a second part, the first part and the second part being interconnected, the first part comprising an inlet for untreated water and an outlet for untreated water, the first part having a diverter section to allow the untreated water entering the first part to be diverted to a channel connecting to the water treatment system, the second part having at least a first channel and a second channel for receiving treated water from the water treatment system, the second part incorporating a slideable shaft in a bore and a connected outlet for treated water, the slideable shaft connecting at least one of the at least a first channel and a second channel to the outlet for treated water of the first part.
9) A water treatment system comprising at least a first water treatment unit and a second water treatment unit, a primary valve for controlling the flow of treated water from the first water treatment unit and the second water treatment unit, a secondary valve connecting the at least a first water treatment unit and the at least a second water treatment unit, the primary valve comprising a valve body, the valve body having a first part and a second part, the first part and the second part being interconnected, the first part comprising an inlet for untreated water and an outlet for treated water, the first part having a diverter section to allow the untreated water entering the first part to be diverted to a channel connecting to at least the first water treatment unit, the second part having at least a first channel and a second channel for receiving treated water from at least the first water treatment unit or the at least second water treatment unit, the second part incorporating a slideable shaft in a bore and a connected outlet for treated water, the slideable shaft connecting at least one of the at least a first channel and a second channel to the outlet for treated water.
12) A water treatment system as in claim channel first water treatment unit flows to the second water treatment unit and into the second channel, subsequently flowing to the outlet for treated water.
