WARNING: Do not remove or plug the relief valve.
One way to reduce the frequency of this occurrence is to maintain an air pocket at the top of the water
heater tank. This air pocket will form in the tank by design. However, it will be reduced over time
by the everyday use of your water heater.
To replenish this air pocket:
1. Turn off water heater.
2. Turn off cold water supply line.
3. Open a faucet in the RV.
4. Pull out on the handle of the Pressure Relief (P & T) Valve and allow water to flow from the
valve until it stops.
5. Release handle on P & T Valve - it should snap closed.
6. Close faucet and turn on cold water supply; as the tank fills, the air pocket will develop.
Repeat this procedure as often as needed to reduce the frequency of the weeping of the P & T Valve.
If the weeping persists after following this procedure, you may elect to install an expansion or
accumulator tank in the cold water line between the tank and the check valve to relieve the pressure
caused by thermal expansion. Contact your local dealer for assistance.
