Get a piece of pipe, a couple inches in diameter and about 3 or 4 feet long, and lay it in the drain pot. Feed a hose from a utility pump into the pipe. Attach a hose to the other fitting and turn-on the pump.
This solution will capture the water before it enters the pool, and it will keep the hose off the surface and out of the way.
no water should be coming out of the safety valve , only if water over a certain temp orthan creates a pressure if water coming out and water not steaming than replace valve
sounds like may be to much heat. if its coming out of the pressure relief valve located on top.turn heat down, you said coming out the valve i thinking you mean the valve on top of heater.if so thats it. faulty valve or water is getting to hot.hope thathelps
The hot water usually goes to a storage tank. The PRV goes there, near or at the top.
150 psi
Excessive pressure
if it's dripping water constantly even when cold most likely your pressure reducing valve on the in coming water is letting in more water than it should causing the pressure to rise, if it just happens when the boiler is calling for heat it's probably your expansion tank, it could be water lodged and needs to be drained and re pressurized or replaced. make sure the pressurizer relief valve is not dripping before your boiler reaches 30 psi, that's what they are usually set for on house boilers, if it is dripping before reaching 30psi it's a faulty pressure relief valve that needs to be replaced
All water heaters should have a pressure relief valve, otherwise they could burst.
Not directly.
Replace the pressure relief valve.
Depends where it is coming from. If it is on the cold side and from the vacuum relief valve, no big deal. If it is coming from the inlet or outlet ports where the fittings are screwed in, then they were not sufficiently threaded in properly.
It can get to almost boiling if your relief valve doesn't work.
