Occasionillly
you
may
experience"weeping"
of
the
pressure/temperature
relief valve·on the water heater.
This
is
not
a
defect.
It
is caused
by
the
normal ex-
pansion
of
water
while
it
is being heated in the clos-
ed
water
system
of
your
motor
home. The water
. heater
tank
is designed internally
with
an
air gap
at
the
top
of
the
tank
to
reduce
this
weeping
phenomenon. In time, though,
the
heating and ex-
pansion
of
the
water
will
absorb this air.

replace
the
air, and reduce relief valve weeping:
