Camco Mfg 10423 Temperature Pressure Relief Valve

Product Description

The CAMCO MFG 10423 is an automatic temperature and pressure relief valve designed for residential water heater installations. The valve features a 0.5-inch inlet and outlet configuration with a 4-inch probe for accurate sensing inside the water heater tank. Temperature and pressure relief valves are a critical safety component that opens automatically when water temperature or system pressure exceeds safe operating thresholds, preventing dangerous over-pressurization. Licensed plumbers install this valve as part of standard water heater service and new installations in compliance with local plumbing codes.

This valve is intended for use on residential storage-type water heaters where a properly rated temperature and pressure relief valve is required by code. The 0.5-inch connection size fits standard water heater tank tappings, and the 4-inch probe length is suited for typical residential tank wall depths. This part ships in a package quantity of four units, making it suitable for stocking by plumbing contractors and supply houses that service multiple installations.

Apply thread sealant tape to male threads before installation and do not overtighten. A properly sized discharge pipe must be connected to the valve outlet and routed to a safe drain location as required by code.
