Hello all,
Had a new electric water heat Installed with a 2.1 g te tank.
We are on a well with a storage tank and a Scala 1 booser pump, pressure not adjustable.
Hose bib max pressure is 82 psi.
Te tank is pre charged at 40psi.
Te tank instructions say the expansion tank should be pre-charged to the incoming system water pressure but must not exceed 80 psi.
Maximum te tank pressure is 150 psi.
My understanding is if the pressure of the te tank is lower then house pressure, tank is useless.
Thoughts?
Cheers
