Do I need an expansion tank?

Jul 20, 2007 3 Replies

Dear Readers,



I've a new oil-fired boiler with an indirect water heater. The boiler loop has an expansion tank. The domestic hot water does not. I have well water (bladder tank located 50+ft away from the boiler). Do I need an expansion tank on my domestic hot water?



All comments appreciated. Thank you. Anthony M. Falcone

No. You need a new oil-fired boiler with an indirect water heater. You're welcome. Bubba

What's your installers opinion, you know, the guy who you paid to ensure everything is to code....so your family and/or friends are safe in your home.....
