PRESSURE RELIEF VALVE (50 PSI)
To avoid water damage or scalding from operation of the pressure relief valve (see Figure 39), install a drain pipe in
the outlet of the pressure relief valve that will direct water discharging from the valve to a safe place for disposal. Do
not install any reducing couplings or valves in the drain pipe. The drain pipe must be installed so as to allow complete
drainage from the valve and drain line. The relief valve should be tested at least once a year by lifting the valve lever.
Explosion hazard. Any heater installed with restrictive devices in the piping system downstream from the heater, (including
check valves, isolation valves, flow nozzles, or therapeutic pool valving), must have a relief valve installed as described
above.
