Ok Jerry, I have one that was raised on an HVAC forum: does installing a shutoff valve on the hot discharge of a DHW tank isolate the TPR and cause a potential problem? Can you cite a prohibition of this practice? A point was made the downstream of a hot side shutoff would require a separate TPR downstream of that shutoff. I did not see anything in the 2009 IRC /Ch. 28 but do not see where it would violate P2803.6
TIA,
