W/M gold plus 40

IS a Triangle Tube. No coil, tank in tank style. I assume you mean the heating system side of the product.
I've had one leak upon install in '04, and the only other leaker had PB tubing in the system, creating an O2 issue.

W/M gold plus 40
Guy's, I installed this heater about six years ago, it now
has a slow leak on the coil side. I've been told the W/M's are known to have problems. Question is,has W/M corrected
these problems and their replacement will be fine or should I be looking else where ie:triangle tube.

it Is a TT Bruce.
next time bring a Lot of teflon tape with you and a small brass nipto a threaded union....0 -
I was told W/M was the same as super store, TT was not.
I assume teflon and brass nip is to stop corrosion on boiler side? I think my sprinkler system and the hi water pressure during the summer caused this leak, water hammer
can be bad at times even with surge protection.
OT, is it a good idea to replace the plus 40 with another one or should I look to another make and model?

The WM gold
have not been a problem...the only thing i can think of that really is a bug is the tappings never seem Straight maybe its just me. nah...a lot of indirects come off at something askew of plumb and level...on the top of it i chuck the pieces for the air relife and make a different gizmo out of a bell reducer and nip also...
that always seemed to be a pain in the brain until i bagged the reducing bushing and went with a nip and bell..the Caleffi air eliminator is a better deal too as you can use its check valve instead of a small jomar and Modifing the air vent.
an ST-12 is the deal for expansion ,Bruce. it allows some cushion on the domestic side...0
