THERMAL PROTECTION VALVE
Your pressure washer is equipped with a thermal protection valve, located at the base of the pump. If the motor is left
running for an extended period of time with the gun closed, the pressure washer will vent water into the atmosphere
through this valve. This will protect against accidental situations but is not designed for repetitive venting.
