Watts 88006672 Valve
The Watts 88006672 Valve is a professional-grade temperature and pressure relief valve designed specifically for hot water storage tanks and residential water heaters. This 3/4" NPT M1 series model provides critical over-temperature and over-pressure protection, featuring a 150 psi pressure relief setting and a 210°F temperature relief threshold. With a 105,000 BTU/hr capacity, it ensures system safety by automatically discharging water during emergency conditions to prevent tank failure. Built with a high-strength bronze body and a stainless steel spring, this valve utilizes an accurate thermostat with a unique thermo-bonded coating for long-term corrosion resistance and reliable thermal response. It is ASME rated and CSA listed to ANSI Z21.22 standards, making it the industry standard for contractors requiring a dependable mechanical safety device that meets strict building codes without unnecessary extras.
Key Benefits- Dual-Function Protection: Provides simultaneous safety measures for both excessive heat and internal pressure buildup.
- Corrosion-Resistant Internals: The thermostat is engineered with a specialized thermo-bonded coating to withstand harsh water conditions.
- High-Capacity Discharge: Rated for up to 105,000 BTU/hr, suitable for standard commercial and residential heating applications.
- Durable Construction: Features a rugged bronze body and stainless steel spring for maximum field longevity.
- Code Compliance: Meets ASME Section IV requirements and is CSA certified for professional installations.
Is this valve compatible with thick tank insulation?
This specific model is designed for standard tank configurations; however, if you are working with extra-thick insulation, ensure the thermostat sensing element remains immersed within the top 6 inches of the tank for accurate thermal detection.
What is the primary cause of frequent valve dripping?
In most HVAC systems, consistent dripping is often a sign of thermal expansion rather than a faulty valve. We recommend checking the system pressure or installing an expansion tank if the static pressure exceeds 75% of the valve's 150 psi set point.
Can I install this valve in any orientation?
For proper performance, the temperature sensing element must be in contact with the hottest water at the top of the tank. Always follow local plumbing codes regarding the installation of discharge piping and drain lines.
