ABSTRACT:
A pitless adapter which includes a diverter valve for selectively diverting water from the pump side of the pitless adapter to a purge line or from the pump side of the pitless adapter to a supply line. The pitless adapter valve of the preferred embodiment employs a standard "T" shaped housing including a three-way ball valve to selectively divert the water from the lower well inlet port to either the upper purge outlet port or the side supply outlet port. A face plate is attached around the supply outlet port and configured to be slidably received and held by the pitless adapter shoe. A valve actuator handle and handle extender are provided so that the valve can be operated from ground level at the top of the well casing.
