An apparatus for enhancing the water quality in a subterranean pressurized water system is disclosed and provides a discharge passage control via a valve that can be actuated electronically at the location of the valve or remotely. The discharge through the apparatus permits the flow of water in the subterranean pressurized water system and a corresponding discharge of contaminants and increased concentration of disinfectants supplied to the subterranean pressurized water system by the water system manager. The discharge can occur directly to a below ground drain such as a storm drain, sewer or drain field.

1. An apparatus for the enhancement of water quality in a subterranean pressurized water distribution system, said apparatus comprising:a flow controlled passage for pressurized water having an inlet adapted for fluid connection to said subterranean pressurized water distribution system, said flow controlled passage having a conduit for directing pressurized water received in said inlet to a routing conduit for redirecting said pressurized water subterraneously, said routing conduit having an outlet adapted for fluid connection to a drain system for receiving said pressurized water, whereby atmospheric discharge of said pressurized water and its associated dangers are avoided; a flow control valve disposed along said flow controlled passage for permitting and prohibiting the flow of pressurized water through the flow controlled passage; programmable electronic control circuitry for controlling the flow of pressurized water through said flow controlled passage by activating and deactivating the flow control valve, said system including a programmable microprocessor system for storing instructions for activating and deactivating the flow control valve; and at least one programming interface operatively connected to the microprocessor system for inputting electronic information to be stored and processed in said microprocessor system for activating and deactivating said flow control valve, further comprising a housing enclosing said microprocessor system, flow control valve and at least a portion of said flow controlled passage for protecting against environmental factors external to the housing.
