When my water softener runs, water pours out of my water heater pressure relief valve for about fifteen minutes. this is the only time I see water. Water Softener guys say the softener is fine-must be the water heater. Any thoughts? Water heater is a year old but Whirpool says the warranty was voided when the owner sold the house to me. Isn't that nice?
