Trusted Safety Relief – Cash Acme NCLX Temperature & Pressure Relief Valve

The Cash Acme NCLX Series Combination Temperature and Pressure Relief Valve is a proven solution for protecting residential and light commercial water heaters from excess pressure and temperature. Engineered for reliable performance, this valve is designed to relieve system conditions that could otherwise lead to equipment damage or failure.

Professional-Grade Performance

Built with precision and tested to meet rigorous standards, the NCLX valve complies with ASME Boiler Code Section IV and ANSI Z21.22/CSA 4.4 requirements.

This helps maintain system integrity without the need for frequent manual resets or replacements.
