38 Year old hot water tank
Here is a relic. 1971 Simpson Sears hot water tank with an unusual TPR valve.
What is this TPR valve called?  Mark Nicholet Apple Home Inspections LTD My Blog InterNACHI member Infrared-Certified CAHPI(BC) member BC Licence # 47592

Re: 38 Year old hot water tank
The valve appears to be pressure only (no temperature component) vs a TPR - temperurature/pressure relief.
