We then installed a new copper bypass line from shut off valve number one over to shut off valve number two. After the bypass was installed, we turned the water back on and checked for leaks while the company's maintenance team went around and tested all the building's fixtures for water pressure and proper operation.

While there, we also replaced the tank on a Gerber Ultra Flush pressure-assist toilet.
