Hi how is everyone?
I recently changed my hot water tank from the old copper one that needed a lagging jacket to the new one that has the blue insulation around it, perfect job, question is there was an expansion vessel installed on top of the old copper one but the plumber said I didn't need it when he was changing the tank so he left it off, now he did say if there was a problem give him a bell and he'd be straight over to put it back on but he didn't see that happening, so far so good anyway the heating is perfect touch wood, , any idea why it was there in the first place and why it's not needed now? We used to have to heat the water to have a shower but we got an electric shower installed last year would that have anything to do with it??? We have gas heating with a baxi solo boiler. I should of asked him to explain more but I was on the night shift and knackered and was just glad to have it done. Thanks for any help or explanation.
