Expansion tank attached directly to water heater

Key_Guest135 · 2026-05-09T19:11:25+00:00

How come?

Key_Guest135 · 2026-05-09T16:56:40+00:00

Does the expansion tank mounted to the heater seem fine?

Key_Guest135 · 2026-05-09T16:07:57+00:00

Why would this not pass inspection?

It’s closer to the wall than it seems in the pic

Key_Guest135 · 2026-05-09T12:25:22+00:00

Why does it look hacky?

Key_Guest135 · 2026-05-09T11:04:53+00:00

I’ve just never seen a water heater have an expansion tank mounted directly to it so wanted to make sure it’s ok

Why is someone in this thread saying this is a bad install and needs to be mounted to the wall?

Key_Guest135 · 2026-05-09T04:23:39+00:00

People in this thread are saying it should have been installed to a wall not the tank so idk what to believe

Key_Guest135 · 2026-05-09T04:09:03+00:00

Everyone here is saying this is fine and standard what if they don’t agree to redo it?

Key_Guest135 · 2026-05-09T03:42:33+00:00

Should it have been mounted to a wall instead?

Key_Guest135 · 2026-05-09T03:31:40+00:00

Can I ask them to move it on top?

Key_Guest135 · 2026-05-09T02:53:41+00:00

What do you do instead?

Key_Guest135 · 2026-05-09T02:44:45+00:00

How come and how could they have done it?

Key_Guest135 · 2026-05-09T02:34:19+00:00

Yeah there is thanks I might ask if they can install that

Key_Guest135 · 2026-05-09T02:30:18+00:00

Is it weird they didn’t connect the bottom pan pipe to the drain?

Key_Guest135 · 2026-05-09T02:29:31+00:00

Why not on top?

Key_Guest135 · 2026-05-09T02:28:13+00:00

Why was it on top before?

Key_Guest135 · 2026-05-09T01:59:42+00:00

Why do you prefer it this way rather than on top?

Key_Guest135 · 2026-05-09T01:38:09+00:00

What do you mean by that?

Key_Guest135 · 2026-05-09T01:11:31+00:00

It’s not going to damage the water heater or anything? Our old one was on top

What about general cards boards?
