Expansion Tank Replacement in Houston, TX

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 Houston, TX 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 Houston, TX.

Talk to a real person
Do condensing boilers work with old cast iron radiators?
They can, but they only condense when return water comes back cool. Outdoor reset control and properly sized radiators make the difference.
Why are my radiators cold at the top?
Air is trapped in them. Bleed each radiator with a radiator key until water runs steadily, then check the boiler pressure and top it up if needed.
My boiler is running but the house is cold. What should I check?
Look at the pressure gauge, listen for the circulator pump, and feel the pipes leaving the boiler. Hot boiler with cold pipes usually means a pump or zone valve problem.
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.
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.
