There is a better off the shelf system with two valves (on both ends) - Google “Camco 35953” (or 35963; they differ only in the length of the bypass hose). Works like a charm.

I was thinking of putting shut offs on the inlet and outlet with a bypass below the shut offs with its own valve. In normal operation I would close the bypass valve. Is there a better way?
