The majority<\/strong> of RV<\/strong> water<\/strong> heaters and motorhome water<\/strong> heaters are either Suburban water<\/strong> heaters or Atwood water<\/strong> heaters. RVs, which do not have Suburban or Atwood water<\/strong> heaters, are usually high end motor<\/strong> homes which may have either instantaneous water<\/strong> heaters or some type<\/strong> of engine<\/strong> assist water<\/strong> heaters. Here we’re going<\/strong> discuss leaking, weeping water<\/strong> heaters, or more specifically weeping pressure<\/strong> temperature relief valves. (Commonly referred to as P&T relief value).<\/p>\n

P&T relief valves can be an area of confusion for Rv’ers until they understand the purpose and function of the P&T valve and whether or not they are functioning properly. In other words a P&T valve which is always weeping way not necessarily be bad. Let me explain why.<\/p>\n

PURPOSE<\/strong> OF P&T RELIEF<\/strong> VALVE<\/p>\n

RV<\/strong> water<\/strong> systems are closed systems, which mean there must be a means of relieving excess pressure<\/strong> when it develops. The obvious question then is what would cause excess pressure<\/strong> to develop in the tank<\/strong>. We know H2O expands when heated so we might then conclude there is always excess pressure<\/strong> in the water<\/strong> tank<\/strong>. This is true…only to a point<\/strong> however. A properly functioning RV<\/strong> water<\/strong> heater always has an air expansion<\/strong> pocket<\/strong> in the top of the tank<\/strong>. What is an air expansion<\/strong> pocket<\/strong>? It is simply an air pocket<\/strong>, which naturally forms in the water<\/strong> heater tank<\/strong> when it is filled.<\/p>\n

As long as this air expansion<\/strong> pocket<\/strong> is of sufficient size<\/strong>, the only time the P&T relief water<\/strong> valve will weep is during the heating cycle<\/strong>. However, as hot water<\/strong> is taken from the tank<\/strong> the size<\/strong> of the air expansion<\/strong> pocket<\/strong> will diminish eventually to the point<\/strong> where the tank<\/strong> is practically full of water<\/strong>. When it reaches this point<\/strong> the inside pressure<\/strong> of the tank<\/strong> will almost always be excessive ( over the 125\/150 psi rating for the P&T valve) resulting in excessive weeping of the P&T valve. Rv’ers not aware of this may mistakenly conclude the P&T valve is bad when it is not. To further complicate matters they may replace the valve and in the process<\/strong> re-introduce an adequate air expansion<\/strong> pocket<\/strong> and then it will naturally work fine…. until the air expansion<\/strong> pocket<\/strong> is diminished again and the whole process<\/strong> repeats itself. Rv’ers replacing numerous P&T valves are most likely doing it needlessly. So what is the answer? Reintroduce an adequate air expansion<\/strong> pocket<\/strong> and this is how it is done:<\/p>\n

1. Turn water<\/strong> heater off.<\/p>\n

2. Turn off water<\/strong> supply (city H2O or H2O pump).<\/p>\n

3. Open closest hot H2O faucet in RV<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

4. Open the P&T valve by pulling on handle at end of valve and allow H2O to flow until it stops.<\/p>\n

5. Release handle on P&T valve – it should snap shut. ( do this a couple of times as it may stick).<\/p>\n

6. Close hot water<\/strong> faucet.<\/p>\n

7. Turn on H2O supply – Now that everything is closed the tank<\/strong> will refill and air expansion<\/strong> pocket<\/strong> will be re-established.<\/p>\n

Repeat the above procedure if P&T valve continues to weep between heating cycles. If this is not successful then the P&T valve should be replaced.<\/p>\n
