Recently got a new water heater and the pressure relief valve keeps dripping. Although the valve is new, I replaced it thinking maybe something got caught in the valve seat. The new valve drips as well.
The valve is supposed to relieve pressure when it reaches 150 psi and when water temp reaches 210 degrees f. I drained water into a bowl and measured the temp at 128.5 degrees f with a digital cooking thermometer. Any idea what's going on? Do I need to regulate the pressure of the water going into the water heater?
Thanks
