Relief valves

The lever on the relief valves should be operated at least every six months.  Failure to do
so  may  result  in  failure  of  the  tank.    If  water  does  not  discharge  freely  from  the  valves
they  should  be  checked  and  possibly  replaced.    The  relief  valves  and  relief  valve  drain
lines must not be blocked. Some water may discharge during each heating cycle

Every  ﬁve  year’s  all  safety  valves  should  be  replaced  to  ensure  continued  life  and
operational  safety  of  the  system.    In  locations  where  the  potable  water  has  a  Total
Dissolved  Solids (TDS) of greater than  600  ppm it is  recommended to replace all safety
valves every 3 years.
