What causes geysers to erupt?

the most common cause for a geyser to erupt is due to a tempreature and pressure problem. many plumbers who dont know how to install geyers properly, plug off the TP safety valve outlet (Temp and Pressure), what happens, the thermostat in the geyser fails and cannot control the tempreature inside the geyser, causing the geyser to over boil, which then creates extra pressure (because of the steam) within the geyser, so when that safety outlet is plugged off the geyser takes an enormous amount of strain, and then it finally explodes. it can be devestating and has known to rip roofs off houses.
