Does a tankless water heater need a pressure regulator?

Gas-fired tankless water heaters will usually require a pressure relief valve, while electric on-demand water heaters may not. The manufacturers typically only require a pressure relief valve, not the combination temperature and pressure relief valve that is necessary for tank-type water heaters.

Why are pressure relief valves on water heaters inadequate?

So, what causes the pressure-relief valve to fail? In many cases, the valve gets stuck or frozen in place due to the buildup of rust and corrosion inside the tank. Or, the valve is stuck due to a prior instance in which it released hot water.
