I'm building a DIY solar system with this style of VRV at the top of the system:
I'm wondering how low it will drain down, specifically if I have a diverter valve 1-2 feet above the water line, will it drain when the pump is off to provide frost protection for the diverter valve.
The spring that keeps the ball valve in the VRV is quite stiff so I'm thinking it might close at several feet or higher of water still in the plumbing, but hoping not.
