My central heating system is a closed system with an expansion tank.
There is a filler valve on the mains side of the expansion tank that allows me to top up/pressurise the system to the recommended 1 bar.
The connection from the expansion tank to the is a braided pipe with a valve on it.
What does this valve do?
My first thought were it is a non-return valve but then isn't the expansion tank supposed to take excess pressure from the system.
Should I have a non return valve on the mains side of the expansion tank.
Thanks for all the help and advice offered...
