Watts 481006 Tp Relief Valve 150 Psi 3/4 Inch

Product Description

The WATTS 481006 is a temperature and pressure relief valve designed to protect water heaters and hydronic heating systems from dangerous overpressure and overtemperature conditions. Based on the Watts 100XL series, this valve features a 3/4-inch connection size and a pressure rating of 150 PSI. It opens automatically when system pressure or temperature exceeds safe operating limits, discharging water to relieve the hazard. Licensed plumbers and HVAC technicians install this valve as both a code-required safety device and an OEM-style replacement component.

This relief valve is suited for residential and light commercial water heater installations where a 3/4-inch T and P valve is specified. It is appropriate for natural gas, propane, and electric water heater applications where local plumbing codes require a listed temperature and pressure relief device. The 100XL designation indicates compliance with standard relief valve performance requirements for potable water systems.
