that tprv appears beyond life expectancy

did you get make/model tpr info from the data tag to assure probe was long enough?

Thanks, that’s a handy link. The water heater is from the 70’s so it’s time for it to go anyway.

In addition, the valve cannot be installed on top of any other fitting. The TPR is required to be inserted to a specific depth.
