Hi,
I did a search for the problem I'm having and I'm pretty sure I've found the problem. But I just want to confirm that I'm correct.
I've got a Bradford While 40 gallon gas water heater. It was installed in May 2010 by a pro. Today, I opened up the water heater closet door to find the floor was quite wet and water dripping every few seconds from the copper pipe that extends down the side of the tank. Am I right that it's the temperature pressure relief valve that the pipe is connected to and that this valve has gone bad?
Seems hard to believe it would go bad on such a new tank...
Thanks, Tim
