Abstract: A universal multi-path control valve system includes at least two sets of outlets controlled by a single on/off operator. A compact design allows the control valve system to save space in the compact areas where plumbing fixtures are typically installed. The control valve system is constructed entirely of molded plastic components. Fittings supplied with the control valve system allow for customized installation according to the needs of the installer. Appliances may be easily added or removed using threaded connections on the valve and fittings supplied as part of the control valve system.
