Expansion Tanks
Expansion tanks are essential components in a plumbing system, particularly in closed-loop water heating systems such as those using boilers or water heaters. They are excellent for troubleshooting HVAC components that absorb pressure in your plumbing systems, reducing risks and potential repairs. Other benefits of expansion tank installation with LLPP HVAC include:
- Ensure Safety: Excessive pressure buildup in a water heating system can lead to safety hazards such as leaks, bursts, or even explosions.
- Extend System Lifespan: By reducing stress on system components, expansion tanks help extend the lifespan of water heaters, boilers, and other plumbing system parts.
- Maintain Efficiency: When pressure is properly managed with an expansion tank, the system operates more efficiently, lowering energy consumption and utility costs over time.
- Compliance: In many building codes and regulations, expansion tanks are required for closed-loop water heating systems to meet safety standards and compliance requirements.

Expansion Tank Installations
Expansion tanks are a necessity for proper and safe plumbing, building codes and legalities in Hamilton and the Niagara Region. We provide quick and efficient expansion tank installments for all plumbing systems. There are two types of expansion tanks, which vary in size and shape:
Bladder-Type Expansion Tanks:
- These expansion tanks feature a flexible bladder inside the tank that separates the air or gas chamber from the water chamber.
- As water expands due to thermal changes, it enters the bladder, compressing the air or gas in the chamber.
- Bladder-type tanks are known for their efficiency in maintaining consistent pressure levels and are commonly used in residential and commercial applications.
Diaphragm-Type Expansion Tanks:
- Diaphragm-type expansion tanks use a flexible diaphragm to separate the air or gas chamber from the water chamber.
- Similar to bladder-type tanks, as water expands, the diaphragm flexes, allowing the air or gas in the chamber to compress.
- Diaphragm-type tanks are also effective in managing pressure fluctuations and are widely used in various plumbing systems.
