Expansion Tank Replacement in Slatington, PA

Water expands when it heats, and the expansion tank gives it somewhere to go. When the tank's internal bladder fails, the tank fills with water and system pressure climbs every time the boiler fires.

The usual sign is a relief valve that drips or blows at 30 psi on a hot water boiler. Tap the tank: a healthy one sounds hollow at the top, a waterlogged one sounds solid all the way. Older steel compression tanks hung from the basement ceiling can waterlog too and need draining.

Reliable Boiler Service connects Slatington, PA homeowners with technicians who replace the tank, set the air charge to match the cold fill pressure (often around 12 psi), and check the pressure reducing valve while they are there. A tank charged wrong works almost as badly as a failed one.

Left alone, it wears out relief valves and stresses every joint in the system.

Expansion Tank Replacement FAQs

Frequently asked questions about Expansion Tank Replacement

Questions we hear most often about Expansion Tank Replacement in Slatington, PA.

Talk to a real person
Why does my steam heat bang and hammer?
Banging usually comes from condensate trapped in a pipe that lost its pitch or a radiator tilted the wrong way. A pressuretrol set too high makes it worse.
How often should a boiler be serviced?
Once a year, ideally before the heating season. Steam boilers with a float type low-water cutoff also need regular blowdown through the winter.
What does a lockout code on my boiler mean?
The boiler tried to light several times and failed, so it shut itself off for safety. Note the code before resetting, since it narrows the cause down to ignition, flame sensing, venting or water pressure.
Do you handle steam boilers in older buildings?
Yes. Reliable Boiler Service connects owners with technicians who work on one-pipe and two-pipe steam, including air vents, pressuretrols, sight glasses and low-water cutoffs.
How do I know if my boiler is the right size?
A room-by-room heat loss calculation is the only real answer. Boilers that short cycle on mild days are often oversized for the house.
