Common Questions

What pressure is this valve set to?

It is factory set to relieve at 125 psi. The setting is fixed and is not field-adjustable.

Can I use this on potable water?

Yes. It is certified lead-free to NSF/ANSI 372, which is what plumbing codes require for any device in a drinking-water line.

Does the discharge have to be piped?

Yes. Codes require the outlet to be piped full-size to a safe point of discharge, terminating with an air gap and no valve, cap, or reducer anywhere in the line — a relief valve that cannot discharge freely is not protecting anything. The manual test lever should be operated at least annually to confirm the valve is not seized.
