You had better already have the relief valve on the water heater. And the expansion tank is to help the relief valve work better, it is not the reason for needing one.

: Is a pressure relief valve needed in line prior to the addition of a expansion tank of water heater; what size tank necessary with 60 gal. water heater. Any unforeseen difficulties with do-it-yourself job?
