Expansion Tanks – Discount Phoenix Plumber

HI folks, Phoenix Discount Plumber here giving a little info on why we use thermal expansion tanks.

Ever wonder what a thermal expansion tank is?  Or why you would need one of these.
Thermal expansion tanks needs came about by the city adding what you call
a “check valve” on the city water meter installed at each house. This
makes each home what we call a “closed” system. Meaning that water can
flow in but once in the system past the check valve it cannot come back
into the city system. This type of system would be fine if it was just
cold water, But the heating of the water in the hot water heater causes
the water molecules to expand and cause extra pressure on your pluming
system. In some cases expanding and contracting your water heater and
pipes. This wears out the Phoenix plumber water heaters, toilet fill valves and faucets faster
then normal. The state has made it mandatory for all new installations and
retrofits to have a thermal expansion tank installed on your water system
between the cold water supply and the water heater.plumber Phoenix says If you do not have one
of these you will want to have one installed on your system to help
prevent any more undue stress on your  Phoenix plumbing system. Contact us to
schedule a time to have one installed on your home before you have problems that cost a lot more then one of these do! remember call a discount Phoenix Plumber Az for all your plumber Phoenix needs
