Temperature-Pressure Relief Valve

_WARNING

At the time of manufacturethis water heater was provided with a combinationtemperature-pressuresreliefvalvecertified by a nationally recognized testing laboratory that maintains periodicinspectionof productionof listedequipmentor mate- rials, as meeting the requirements for Relief Valves and

AutomaticGas ShutoffDevicesfor Hot Water SupplySystems, and the latest editionof ANSI Z21.22 and the code require- mentsof ASME. If replaced, the valvemust meet the require- mentsof localcedes,but not lessthan a combinationtempera. ture and pressurerelief valvecertified asmeeting the require- merits for ReliefValvesandAutomatic GasShutoffDevicesfor

Hot Water SupplySystems,ANSI Z21.22bya nationallyrecog- nizedtesting laboratorythat maintainsperiodicinspectionof productionof listedequipmentor materials.

The valvemust be niarked with a maximumset pressurenot to exceed the marked hydrostaticworking pressureof the water heater (150 IbsJsqin. .) and a dischargecapacitynot less than the water heaterinput rate as shownon the modelrating

Yourlocaljurisdictionalauthority,whilemandatingthe useof a temperature-pressurereliefvalvecomplyingwith ANSI 7-21.22and ASME, may require a valvemodel differentfrom the one furnishedwith the water heater.

Compliancewith suchlocalrequirements mustbe satisfiedby the installeror end user ofthe water heater with a locallypre-

_,WARNING

The temperature-pressure relief valve must be manually operated at least once a yea_ Caution should be taken to ensurethat (I) no one is in front of or aroundthe outlet of the temperature-pressuren.-qiefvalvedischargeline, and (2) the water manually dischargedwill not cause any bodily injury or property damage because the water may be exeremalyhot

If after manually operating the valve, it fails to completely reset and continuesto release water, immediatelydose the cold water inlet to the water heater, follow the draining

instructions, and replace the temperature-pressure relief valvewith a newone.
