Good little tank

This is a good little exp. tank
My recommendation is use with only One Solar collector systems, or no more than 2000' 1/2" pex tubing heating systems.

    Q:

    Can this product be used along a potable water line?
    Asked on 12/29/2011 by Anonymous

    2 answers

    • A:

      The #15 Extrol Expansion Tank is NOT intended for use in a supply system for potable water supplies.

      Answered on 1/9/2012 by Anonymous from None
    • CUSTOMER CARE

      A:

      This expansion tank is designed for use in closed heating systems (i.e. systems that continually cycle the same water). In an open system (such as any plumbing system), the tank would rust.

  • #15 Extrol Expansion Tank (2 Gallon Volume)

    Q:

    I have an old Amtrol 2 gal., model ST-5 that needs replacing. It will be installed in my main water supply line and is primarily to control pressure to my 40 gal., potable, hot water dedicated heater that will be about 18' from the expansion tank.
    1) What model expansion tank should I use?.
    2) When I install the tank vertically, does it matter which end is up and which is down?.

    • CUSTOMER CARE

      A:

      We recommend that you use the 140N43. You can install the tank with the unit pointing down.
