atwood 10 gallon water heater
my water heater in my rv leaks out of the pressure relief valve when the heater reaches 140.

Not sure I agree about an air pocket in the top of the hot water heater. I realize the benefits, but would be concerned about impacting the functionality of the T&P valve. The valve not only releases on excess pressure, but excess heat too. The valve probe should be submerged for best effectiveness. 140 degrees is a pretty typical hot water temp. Most household T&P valves are 170 degrees and 150 psi. Never checked the tag on the camper......
