Introduction

Hot water systems in Singapore homes are often overlooked until they fail. One hidden risk? Thermal expansion. Without an expansion tank, pressure builds up and damages your heater, pipes, and plumbing.

Why Expansion Tanks Are Needed

• Thermal Expansion: Water expands when heated.

• System Stress: Without a cushion, pressure damages plumbing.

• Safety Hazard: In extreme cases, it can cause leaks or bursts.
