Yeah, that seems to be an easy fix. Sounds like its your TPR valve thats busted.

often these things only need a part here or there and they are back in ship shape. people often replace 20 year old things like my spa heater but when my gas man came to have a look at it he said that the problem most probably lies in a $15 thermostat the size of a 5c piece.

[Mad Mat]

wat do u expect he's only a sparky :P haha

Then he should know what copper looks like.
Hot water systems are generally either steel or stainless steel with a sacrificial copper anode. If the tank was made of copper then they would be prohibitively expensive.

lol ya ya. i'm a sparky. but the hot water system i have (had) was a ceramic gas hot water system (in ur face cosmo dude lol :P). and it was replaced today yay hot showers :D
