PRESSURE RELIEF VALVE

WARNING

Keep clear of the pressure relief valve discharge line outlet. The discharge may be hot enough to cause scald injury. The water is under pressure and may splash.

For protection against excessive pressure, install pressure protective equipment required by local codes, but not less than a 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 pressure relief valve must be marked with a maximum set pressure not to exceed the maximum working pressure of the water heater. The pressure relief valve rating must not be less than the hourly rating of the water heater.

Install the pressure relief valve into a tee connection from the hot water outlet of the water heater.

Note: Some models may already be equipped or supplied with an installed pressure relief valve. Verify that the pressure relief valve complies with local codes. If the pressure relief valve does not comply with local codes, replace it with one that does. Follow the installation instructions in the following paragraph.

Install a discharge line so that water discharged from the pressure relief valve will exit within six (6) inches (15.2 cm) above, or any distance below the structural floor and cannot 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 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 pressure relief valve.

DO NOT place a valve between the pressure relief valve and the hot water outlet!
