The temperature and pressure relief valve (T&P) is an important safety feature that prevents pressure from building up that could damage the water heater and even your home. Over time, corrosion can cause the T&P valve to no longer function as it should. To determine if your T&P valve is working properly, open the valve with your hand by pulling up the lever as shown in the video. When pulling up on this lever, you should hear pressure escape the valve. If it doesn’t pass that simple test, it’s time to replace the valve.

This video shows detailed step-by-step procedure for how to replace a T&P valve on a gas or electric hot water heater.

Tools you’ll need

Monkey Wrench Gang, Threading over 120+ pipes with the $30 Harbor Freight #94101 Pipe Threader I had for years. I bought it to replace those cheap and dirty, ugly, bent, wooden dowel rods in my closets. You can do it Make nipples down to 7″, any smaller and you have to buy them. Actually the Rigid pipe threader I mentioned is now over $4000+ and takes up to much room for a home owner, like those ads on Craigslist. Sides you don’t need to drive to the gym to smell farts to get a work out. And its snowing out. I’m gonna get some cutting machine oil as soon as I get around to it.Some day, Soon:)8
