Joel,
There is a hose on my relief valve that directs any water from it to the
bilge.....I will place a container under the hose to see if catches any
water.
Thanks for the tip....will let you know what happens.

As I have said before, replace the relief valve. It opened
occasionally on my Raritan

I was convinced my old Raritan water heater was leaking.....after a
close inspection yesterday with the assistance of a mechanic familiar
with these issues, we concluded it was not leaking. The wooden
platform
it sits on was dry, pressure valve outlet dry, valve to empty the
tank
on the bottom was dry, all connections in and out were dry.
The mechanic said to leave the pressure pump on....after the
system is
pressurized it should stay off....if it comes back on without running
water, chances are the system has a leak. After several hours,
it did
not come back on.
The mechanic did not have time yesterday to trouble shoot the
source of
the leak....he said to inspect every connection which might entail
placing newspapers or paper towels under each to try to determine
where
the water ic coming from.
It is good news in one respect but frustrating in another. I'll keep
the list posted.
