Rv water heater pop off valve leaking.

Winnebago customer support suggested the same thing. This valve is set at 150 psi and is crafted with epoxy coated probes to prevent corrosion buildup. Help me understand the concept. The leak stopped for awhile and is now back.

If the valve has a leak we can replace it with a new relief valve a very common water heater repair. If you have any questions about why your water heater s relief valve is leaking or if you d like a plumbing system serviced or installed in your home contact cabrillo your bay area plumbing heating and air conditioning contractor. Thanks for the replies. That doesn t make sense to me.

Open the valve at the bottom and the pressure relief valve for a minute to drain a little water out of the tank and relieve the pressure. The water will leak out but not air.

These valves may look identical but they re set to go off at 30 psi. Following their advice i turned off the water pump opened the the pop off valve and ran a inside faucet to create a air pocket.
