 The temperature and pressure relief valve (T & P) is a safety device limiting temperature and pressure levels in a water heater. Each T & P has both a temperature and pressure rating. Normally, the temperature and pressure relief valve will have a temperature rating for 210°F. A probe (part of the relief valve) extends into the tank measuring the stored water temperature. This probe must be within the top six inches of the water heater. However, if the water heater’s thermostat malfunctions, higher than normal water temperatures could be produced. Once the probe senses a temperature exceeding its temperature rating, the relief valve will open to full capacity releasing “very hot” water until the temperature is below its reset temperature.

Symptoms of faulty T&P Valve 

The lever froze and you can't lift it up to release water
The lever won't fully close allowing the water to run
Intermittent weeping and/or dribbling from the relief valve
Large volume of hot water sporadically discharged from the relief valve

Ensuring Practical, Safe Working Water Pressures Municipal and private water supply companies use pumps and pumping stations

to boost water supply pressures in supply mains to be able to supply water for fire fighting, high rise buildings to overcome loss of pressure

as the elevation increases, and to maintain water supply in water towers and supply tanks. Pressure in water supply mains can exceed 200psi

Most plumbing codes require water pressure reducing valves on domestic systems where the municipal water main's pressure exceeds 80psi

Higher pressures could rupture pipes, damage fixtures, and injure the people using them.

Symptoms of faulty Pressure Reducing Valve

High water flow, pressure over 80 PSI, rattling and  noisy pipes.
