This valve opens automatically when water temperature or pressure inside the tank reaches unsafe levels, releasing water to prevent tank rupture or explosion. It is rated for ASME applications up to 500,000 BTU\/h and A.G.A. applications up to 100,000 BTU\/h. Plumbers and water heater service technicians install this valve as a direct replacement on storage-type water heaters where the factory or existing T and P valve has failed or reached the end of service life.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis valve is a replacement part suited for storage water heater installations in residential and light commercial settings. It installs at the T and P valve port on the water heater tank, typically on the side or top of the unit. The 3\/4 inch connection size is one of the most common found on standard tank water heaters. Installations must include a discharge pipe run to within 6 inches of the floor or to a safe drain point per applicable plumbing codes.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e3\/4 inch connection size fits standard water heater T and P relief valve ports\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eASME-rated for systems up to 500,000 BTU\/h\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eA.G.A.-rated for systems up to 100,000 BTU\/h\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eAutomatic pressure and temperature release protects tank from overpressure conditions\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eDirect replacement part — designed to restore code-required safety function\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style replacement T and P relief valve for storage water heaters requiring a 3\/4 inch relief valve connection.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInstallation must be performed by a licensed plumber in accordance with the International Plumbing Code and local authority having jurisdiction requirements.
