Temperature and Pressure
(T&P) Valves

As of August 1, 2000, there is no longer any requirement to install a T&P Valve with the Seisco water heater. The HUD letter recognizes and accepts the Underwriters Laboratories, Inc. (UL) Standard 499 endorsing the National Electrical Code (NEC) as an appropriate standard to the Tankless Water Heater Installation of valves for temperature and pressure relief as mandated by Standard 3280.609(c). Since the Seisco water heater meets the requirements of UL 499 and NEC as a tankless water heater, there is no requirement for a T&P Valve when the Seisco water heater is installed in a Manufactured Home.

NATIONAL ELECTRICAL CODE
