Lochinvar & A.O. Smith 100208443 Valve

As a seasoned technician, you know that maintaining system integrity starts with high-quality safety components. The Lochinvar & A.O. Smith 100208443 Valve is a 3/4" x 1" 150# T&P relief valve designed specifically for commercial and residential water heating applications. Built to handle a 95,000 BTU capacity, this valve provides critical overpressure and over-temperature protection. It features a robust bronze body and a reliable thermal element factory-set to discharge at 210°F and 150 PSI. This OEM water heater part is a direct, identical replacement for models RLV2006 and RLV2006K, as well as the older part number 100167419. Whether you are performing routine maintenance or an emergency repair, utilizing a CSA listed and ASME rated safety valve ensure your installations meet code requirements and operate safely under demanding conditions. Its long shank design and 1-inch probe ensure accurate temperature sensing within the top six inches of the water heater tank.

• Universal Compatibility: Serves as a direct OEM replacement for RLV2006, RLV2006K, and various A.O. Smith and Lochinvar boilers and tanks.
• Precise Safety Ratings: Engineered with a 150 PSI relief pressure and a 210°F temperature setting to prevent catastrophic tank failure.
• Durable Construction: Features a corrosion-resistant brass and stainless steel internal assembly for long-term reliability in varying water conditions.
• High Thermal Capacity: Rated for up to 95,000 BTU/hr, making it suitable for a wide range of standard water heating units.
• Code Compliance: Meets ANSI Z21.22 and CSA 4.4 standards, ensuring the part is jobsite-ready for licensed contractors.

• Is this valve a direct replacement for the RLV2006 series? Yes, the 100208443 is technically identical to the RLV2006 and RLV2006K, providing the exact same 3/4" x 1" configuration and pressure specifications.
• Why is my T&P valve dripping after installation? Dripping often indicates thermal expansion in a closed system or debris trapped on the seat disc. We recommend installing an expansion tank or clearing the waterways by briefly operating the test lever.
• Can this be used on an ASME-rated tank? This temperature and pressure relief valve is designed for standard water heaters and is rated accordingly. Always verify that the BTU rating of the valve exceeds the input rating of your specific heater.
