Gas Water Heater leaking water out of the temperature and pressure valve. Could the water pressure regulator contribute to the issue?
The T&amp;P valve on your water heater should be &quot;exercised&quot;, that is, lifted and allow water to flow from it at least once a year and should be replaced when bad. I, replace mine every 5-6 years just to be safe. They do not cost a lot of money and keep you safe. A stuck or frozen T&amp;P valve can do a lot of damage. As others have said, if you do not have an expansion tank installed near your water heater, it would be a good investment to install one. If you want or need to check the water pressure in your home you can buy a pressure gauge in any hardware store or the orange or blue store that will screw onto a hose thread. My 2 cents.
