Some of the most puzzling leaks in Medford Hillside aren’t leaks at all — they’re pressure. In a closed plumbing system, every heat cycle expands the water, and the expansion tank’s air bladder is what absorbs it. When that bladder fails, pressure spikes and the T&P valve discharges after every long heating cycle. We test the bladder, check the air charge against your home’s static pressure, and restore the cushion. Call (833) 713-2101.
The T&P valve is the tank’s pressure whistle — it opens near 210°F or 150 psi. When it weeps, we determine whether the valve has worn out or the system pressure is genuinely high, then install a correctly rated replacement.
The drain valve is the spigot at the tank’s ankle — a classic drip point when its washer hardens or the plastic body cracks. We replace failed valves with solid brass that seals and makes future flushing easier.
