Temperature-Pressure Relief Valve

Temperature-pressure relief valve must comply with ANSI Z21.22 and ASME code.

Properly sized temperature-relief valve must be installed in opening provided.

Can result in overheating and excessive tank pressure.

Can cause serious injury or death.

must not be blocked or reduced in size under any circumstances. Excessive length, over 30 feet (9.14 m), or use of more than four elbows can cause restriction and reduce the discharge capacity of the valve, see Figure 24.

No valve or other obstruction is to be placed between the relief valve and the tank. Do not connect tubing directly to discharge drain unless a 6 inch air gap is provided. To prevent bodily injury, hazard to life, or property damage, the relief valve must be allowed to discharge water in quantities should circumstances demand. If the discharge pipe is not connected to a drain or other suitable means, the water flow may cause property damage.

This heater is provided with a properly certified combination temperature - pressure relief valve by the manufacturer.

The valve is certified by a nationally recognized testing laboratory that maintains periodic inspection of production of listed equipment of materials as meeting the requirements for Relief Valves and Automatic Gas Shut-off Devices for Hot Water Supply Systems, ANSI Z21.22 and the code requirements of ASME.

If replaced, the valve must meet the requirements of local codes, but not less than a combination temperature and pressure relief valve certified as indicated in the above paragraph.

The valve must be marked with a maximum set pressure not to exceed the marked hydrostatic working pressure of the water heater (150 psi = 1,035 kPa) and a discharge capacity not less than the water heater input rate as shown on the model rating plate.

For safe operation of the water heater, the relief valve must not be removed from its designated opening nor plugged.

The temperature-pressure relief valve must be installed directly into the fitting of the water heater designed for the relief valve. Position the valve downward and provide tubing so that any discharge will exit only within 6 inches (153 mm) above, or at any distance below the structural floor. Be certain that no contact is made with any live electrical part. The discharge opening

The Discharge Pipe:

Shall not be smaller in size than the outlet pipe size of the valve, or have any reducing couplings or other restrictions.

Shall not be plugged or blocked.

Shall be of material listed for hot water distribution.

Shall be installed so as to allow complete drainage of both the temperature-pressure relief valve, and the discharge pipe.

Shall terminate at an adequate drain.

Shall not have any valve between the relief valve and tank.

HRN11240P, HRP11240P, HRN11275P, HRP11250P, HRP31275P specifications

The Maytag HRP31250P, HRN31275P, HRP31275P, HRP11240P, and HRP11275P are high-efficiency residential heat pumps designed to provide optimal comfort and energy savings for homeowners. These models showcase Maytag's commitment to reliability, durability, and advanced heating technology.

One of the standout features of the Maytag HRP series is its impressive SEER (Seasonal Energy Efficiency Ratio) and HSPF (Heating Seasonal Performance Factor) ratings. These ratings indicate high efficiency, which translates to reduced energy bills and a smaller carbon footprint. The heat pumps operate efficiently in both heating and cooling modes, making them versatile for year-round climate control.

The HRP31250P and HRP31275P models include variable-speed compressors. This technology allows the heat pumps to adjust their output based on the heating or cooling demand. As a result, they maintain consistent indoor temperatures while using less energy. The variable-speed operation also means quieter operation compared to traditional single-stage units, making for a more pleasant home environment.

Additionally, the HRN31275P model stands out with its advanced inverter technology. This technology provides even greater efficiency by allowing the unit to operate at various capacity levels. The inverter-driven compressor ensures that the heat pump runs at the optimal speed, reducing wear and tear and extending the lifespan of the unit.

These models are built with durable materials and incorporate Maytag's robust design principles. They feature a galvanized steel cabinet that is powder-coated to resist rust and corrosion, ensuring that the heat pumps perform effectively for many years. The units come with a limited warranty, reflecting the manufacturer’s confidence in their long-term performance.

The HRP11240P and HRP11275P models are designed for smaller spaces while still offering the same energy-efficient performance found in their larger counterparts. These units are ideal for apartments or homes with limited space for heating and cooling systems. Their compact size does not compromise on performance, making them an excellent choice for those looking for a balance of efficiency and footprint.

Overall, the Maytag HRP series heat pumps represent an investment in home comfort and energy efficiency. With advanced features, reliable performance, and durable construction, these models are well-suited for today's environmentally conscious homeowners seeking dependable heating and cooling solutions.
