    water logged expantion tank

    I think that my expantion tank is water logged. How much air should be in the tank. Also when I leave my main water supply turned on the pop-off valve or safety valve on top of my furnace drips. Anyone have any info to help me out. Thank you, Denny

    What is the system pressure? Your tank pressure should be the same as your system. Make sure the tank does not have boiler pressure on it when checking. Also make sure bladder in tank is OK. Good Luck!
