Solar Expansion Tank

A water heater expansion tank can often be replaced without having to replace your entire system.

Solar expansion tank. When water is heated it expands due to a phenomenon known as thermal expansion. We offer a range of expansion tanks for potable and non potable applications. Expansion tanks are designed to safely absorb the excess water created and prevent relief valves from triggering. If you have more questions about water heater expansion tanks please give us a call or fill out the form below.

Extrol expansion tanks accept expanded fluid in closed loop hydronic systems to control pressure buildup improve comfort and help reduce energy costs. Amtrol st 5 thermal expansion tank from the manufacturer. Expansion tanks are essential for solar water heater systems. 35 psi max percentage of glycol.

150 psi pre charge pressure. Should the solar system go into overheat mode and shut down the. 15 250 f max diaphragm temp. Solar system expansion tanks with straight thread.

Solar heating expansion tanks. 160 f max working pressure. Amtrol invented the thermal expansion tank to control pressure build up in closed hot water systems. If you have more questions about water heater expansion tanks please give us a call or fill out the form below.

These tanks absorb thermally expanded water to keep the system pressure at safe levels then return that water to the system as the temperature cools. Nearly seven decades after inventing the first diaphragm expansion tank amtrol s lineup now includes specialty models engineered for modern high efficiency systems. All therm x trol expansion tank. This helps keep the pressure consistent and relieve pressure from the piping as the working fluid increases in temperature.

The solar expansion tanks has a rubber membrane which separates the solar liquid loop and the other side is filled with pressurized air. 35 psi pre pressurized vertical solar water heater expansion tank 120 psi model r8019681s4000000 69 77 69 77. 35 psi pre pressurized vertical solar water heater expansion tank 120 psi model r8040681s4000000. The solar extrol expansion tank is.

The excess water volume instead of causing too much pressure on the plumbing rushes into the expansion tank and lowers the pressure in the water heater to safer levels. This ultimately protects it from damage. Set your store to see local availability add to cart. The radiant extrol expansion tank is specifically designed for low temperature radiant flooring systems.

The red expansion tank is used for relieving pressure build up in the closed loop system. This prevents the water heater pressure relief valve from opening saves energy and eliminates a potential safety hazard.
