What is Thermal Expansion?
When water is heated it expands. For example, water heated from 90F (32C) to a thermostat setting of 140F (60C) in a 40 gallon hot water heater will expand by almost one-half gallon. This is because when water is heated, its density decreases and its volume expands (see fig. 1). Since water is not compressible, the extra volume created by expansion must go someplace. During no-flow periods in a system, pressure reducing valves, backflow preventers, and other one-way valves are closed, thus eliminating a path for expanded water to flow back to the system supply. Hence, system pressure increases.
figure 1

70F (21C)
140F (60C)

Temperature vs Density Thermal expansion of water in a closed plumbing system can create a number of annoying and potentially dangerous problems. These include: the build up of unusually high pressure in a system (even when a pressure reducing valve is installed); pressure surges; and the chronic or continuous dripping of a temperature and pressure (T&P) relief valve. In addition, dripping faucets and leaking toilet tank ball cock fill valves are also symptomatic of thermal expansion. More serious problems can also occur due to thermal expansion. When dangerous pressures are built up in a water heater, internal parts may fail such as the internal flues, fittings or water connections. If a flue way collapses it can lead to the potential release of toxic gases, such as carbon monoxide into living spaces. Thermal expansion can also lead to a ruptured or distorted hot water heating tank and may void the manufacturers warranty (see fig.2).

Expansion Tanks
How a Diaphragm Expansion Tank Works
When water is heated in a closed system it expands. Water is not compressible, therefore, the additional water volume created has to go someplace. When an expansion tank is installed the excess water enters the pre-pressurized tank (figure 3). As the temperature and pressure reaches its maximum, the diaphragm flexes against an air cushion (air is compressible) to allow for increased water expansion (figure 4). When the system is opened again or the water cools, the water leaves the tank and returns to the system.
figure 3 - How Expansion Tanks work water diaphragm As the water temperature increases, the expanded water is received by the tank. figure 4 water
diaphragm As the temperature and pressure reaches its maximum, the diaphragm flexes against the air cushion (air is compressible) to allow for increased water expansion.
Note: Expansion tanks are always located on the cold water piping to the water heater or heating system.
To select the correct expansion tank, using the selection guides in this product guide, choose the supply pressure (for pressures between those shown, use next highest supply pressure), read across the chart to the correct tank as indicated by the water heater capacity. For capacities between those shown, use next highest capacity. To accommodate the thermal expansion required for higher temperature and/or higher pressure systems, multiple tanks may be used. Please contact your local authorized Watts representative for assistance in sizing expansion tanks for specific applications requiring multiple tanks.

Service Check Valves
Series SCV service check valves facilitate the servicing of components in systems under pressure. They install between the system and the component. As the component is threaded into the Service Check Valve, the spring loaded valve opens to system pressure. As the component is removed, the valve closes, maintaining system integrity while the component is being inspected. This prevents having to drain the entire system each time a component is serviced.

The chart takes into account typical system water volumes based upon boiler BTUs and type of radiation installed. Simply go to the boiler output BTU equal to or higher than the installed boiler, read across the chart to the correct tank model as indicated by the type of system radiation column on the chart.
