A plumber has installed a peculiar brass T on the relief valve pipe exiting out of the top of a common domestic 50 gallon water. The gas supply line has been routed up to the relief valve pipe and routed through the two open ends of the T and back down to the normal gas connection. The brass T and the gas routing is something I have never seen before. Is this T device something that I am unaware of or is the plumber completely insane? Does anyone have an explanation or does this water pressure relief valve/gas line intersection seem as cockeyed as it does to me?
