I will be replacing my 17 year old AO Smith, 50 gallon electric water heater. The current installation does not have an expansion tank but current code requires one.
This is a closed system w/backflow.
Static water pressure is 70 PSI
I plan on installing a 6 year, GE 50 gallon medium height electric WH from Home Depot
Typical cold water temp is 65dF winter and 80 dF summer
I plan on setting water heater temp to 140dF and using a mixing valve set to 120dF
What tank to use. Amtrol 2 gallon, Amtrol 4.4 gallon or Watts DET-5, 2.1 gallon?
