The purpose of this valve is to release water, thereby, lowering pressure in the water tank. Without the water heater pressure relief valve, the pressure within the water tank could become higher than the tank is meant to handle, which could result in an explosion. Testing the valve annually is an important task to maintain the safety and optimal function of your water heater tank, which is one reason why scheduling regular professional maintenance with your local Mr. Rooter® Plumbing is a good idea.

Also known as the temperature/pressure relief valve, or the TPR valve, this valve is located near the top of the water heater. It usually features a lever you can lift up or down and has a discharge pipe that runs from the valve down to the water heater’s base. If you aren’t sure where to find the valve, refer to your water tank owner’s manual.

Always refer to your owner’s manual before you begin troubleshooting your water tank. For most units, open the water pressure relief valve by simply lifting the valve up until the attached brass stem rises. When you do this, hot water will rush out of the pipe near the bottom of the water tank. Then, push the lever back down to close the valve and stop the water flow.
