One possible reason for the temperature/pressure (tp) valve to start leaking may be from expansion of the water as it is being heated if there are check valves in the water system this is sometimes the culprit .In most water systems there is plenty of room for expansion in the distribution piping and service line and private well systems have a pressure tank that can absorb the expansion. You may have to add a small expansion tank to the water piping at the heater to solve this problem. hope this helps. Bob

Generally this is caused by pressure being built up from the water getting hot in the hot water heater.

If this is your problem, the excessive pressure could possibly burst your water heater. The faucet stem or cartridge or washer may be loose or moving and blocking flow.
