Bradford White 230-32920-01 Relief Valve

The Bradford White 230-32920-01 Relief Valve is a critical OEM safety component designed for precise temperature and pressure protection in residential and commercial water heating systems. Engineered as a T&P relief valve, this part features a 3/4 inch NPT male inlet and a 4 inch stem (also recognized in some specifications as a 3 inch effective length) to ensure accurate thermal sensing within the tank. It is factory-set to discharge at a 150 PSI pressure rating or a maximum temperature of 210 degrees Fahrenheit, providing a necessary failsafe to prevent tank over-pressurization. This genuine Bradford White part, often cross-referenced with 415-32920-01, is the standard replacement for various 1-inch insulated models, including the PowerStor Series SS and MI50L6BN15. For contractors, utilizing this CSA certified and ASME rated relief valve ensures system integrity and maintains HVACR equipment safety standards during routine maintenance or emergency repairs.

• Dual-Action Safety: Simultaneously monitors and responds to both excessive internal tank pressure and dangerous thermal expansion.
• OEM Compatibility: Exact fit for Bradford White residential water heater parts, including select PowerStor indirect models, ensuring "plug-and-play" installation.
• High Capacity Discharge: Rated for up to 105,000 BTU/hr, providing sufficient venting capacity for standard residential and light commercial loads.
• Corrosion Resistance: Constructed with a durable brass body and 4-inch probe to withstand harsh potable water conditions.

Is the 230-32920-01 compatible with my specific water heater model?
This temperature and pressure relief valve is designed for Bradford White units with 1-inch insulation. You should verify your specific model number, as T&P valves are model-specific components based on tank volume and BTU input.

What is the difference between part number 230-32920-01 and 415-32920-01?
These parts are technically identical. Bradford White uses 415-32920-01 as the service kit equivalent of the factory-installed 230-32920-01; they offer the same 150 PSI and 210°F protection.

When should a water heater relief valve be replaced?
In HVACR maintenance, a T&P valve should be replaced if it shows signs of leaking, "weeping," or mineral buildup around the discharge port, which can prevent the valve from seating correctly.
