Ten winners to be announced for the best documented photo of improperly installed, never inspected, plugged or tampered Safety Relief Valves. So grab your camera or phone and take a photo of a T&P valve improperly installed or tampered with. Anyone can enter and you can enter as often as you like. The Dulac Safe Plug Relief (SPR) fitting is a safety device for water heaters and boilers.
In the event a plug, a valve, or some other blockage is used to defeat the purpose of the discharge from the T&P Relief Valve, the SPR will separate. This will allow the T&P Relief Valve to work as expected (BLOW OFF), preventing a Water Heater or Boiler explosion. The WHID is the Only AUTOMATIC SHUT OFF VALVE FOR A WATER HEATER/ WATER HEATER LEAK DETECTOR that is hydraulically activated eliminating the need of any electrical energy or sensing devices.
The WHID's ability to isolate a leaking water heater with the least amount of water seepage is instrumental in preventing mold eradication damages.

The code was based on the assumption that a plain end could only be modified by a qualified contractor who could solder a copper plug on the end.
It was assumed a qualified contractor would NOT do such a thing, and therefore, the system was protected from such tampering.
However, the reality of today is that a plain end does NOT prevent tampering by the common man.
If the SPR breaks-away, couldn't there be a chance of damage?
Yes, but the alternative is the tank exploding.
Much like an air bag deploying, there is potential for damage, but you live to tell about it.
