WARNING

For protection against excessive temperatures and pressure, install temperature and pressure protective equipment required by local codes, but not less than a combination temperature and pressure relief valve certified by a nationally recognized testing laboratory that maintains periodic inspection of production of listed equipment or materials as meeting the requirements of the Standard for Relief Valves and Automatic Gas Shutoff Devices for Hot Water Supply Systems, ANSI Z21.22 and the Standard CAN1-4.4 Temperature, Pressure, Temperature and Pressure Relief Valves and Vacuum Relief Valves. The combination temperature and pressure relief valve must be marked with a maximum set pressure not to exceed the maximum working pressure of the water heater. The hourly BTU discharge capacity or the rated steam relief capacity of the combination temperature and pressure relief valve must not be less than the input rating of the water heater.

Install the combination temperature and pressure relief valve into the opening provided and marked for this purpose on the water heater.

Note: Some models may already be equipped or supplied with a combination temperature and pressure relief valve. Verify that the combination temperature and pressure relief valve complies with local codes. If the combination temperature and pressure relief valve does not comply with local codes, replace it with one that does. Follow the installation instructions above on this page.

Install a discharge line that terminates six (6) inches (15 cm) above the floor, or any distance below the structural floor, to the outlet of the combination temperature and pressure relief valve. DO NOT allow water from the discharge line to contact any live electrical part. The discharge line is to be installed to allow for complete drainage of both the combination temperature and pressure relief valve and the discharge line. The water from the discharge line must be directed to a suitable drain or area that will not be damaged by water Refer to “LOCATING THE WATER HEATER.” The discharge opening must not be subjected to blockage or freezing. DO NOT thread, plug or cap the discharge line.

It is recommended that a minimum clearance of four (4) inches (10.2 cm) be provided on the side of the water heater for servicing and maintenance of the combination temperature and pressure relief valve.

Do not place a shutoff valve between the combination temperature and pressure relief valve and the water heater, or on discharge pipes between such valves or the atmosphere.
