Specifications
Temperature & Pressure Relief Valves
Each hot water storage heater shall be equipped with an automatic
temperature and pressure relief valve to protect the heater from
excessive pressure and excessive temperature. The device shall be
certified as meeting the requirements of ASME low pressure heating
boiler code and ANSI Z21.22. The BTU discharge capacity of the
device shall be in excess of the BTU input rating of the heater. The
device shall be constructed using Lead Free* materials. Lead Free*
automatic re-seating T&P relief valves shall comply with state codes
and standards, where applicable, requiring reduced lead content. The
T&P valve shall be a Watts Series LF40, LF140, LFN240 or LF340.

Following installation, the valve lever MUST be oper-
ated AT LEAST ONCE A YEAR by the water heater
owner to ensure that the waterways are clear. Certain
naturally occurring mineral deposits may adhere to the
valve, blocking waterways, rendering it inoperative.
When the lever is operated, Hot water will discharge if
the waterways are clear. Precautions must be taken to
avoid personal injury from contact with hot water and to
avoid property damage.
