Hot water leaking from discharge tube, new TPR or worse?
Water is leaking from our discharge tube but we do not have a hot water heater. Is this something I should be concerned about? My wife has shut down the boiler using the emerergency shut-off and refuses to turn it back on. I have flipped the TPR valve and a large amount of water was released and the dripping has stopped but when the pressure gauge reaches 30 psi it starts to drip again. Also the water coming out is hot to the touch.
Do I just need a new TPR valve? Any help would be appreciated since I need to take a hot shower!
I have pictures but the file size is too large. I can always email if you need to see them.
Thanks
