Water Heaters / Expansion Tanks

Expansion tanks are used on gas, oil, or electric, direct-fired, residential water heater and hot water storage tank applications to absorb the increased volume of domestic water created by thermal expansion. It also maintains balanced pressure throughout the domestic water supply system by keeping system pressure below the T&P relief valve setting.

What is thermal expansion?

When water is heated, it expands. Since water is not compressible, the extra volume created by expansion must go someplace. Hence, system pressure increases.
