Try Buderus.net and check for a dealer in your area.

No you can not use a standard expansion tank. You need a tank for potable water and its preasure must match that of your incoming water supply. The tanks are the same for indirect or direct fired hot water heaters.

Good Luck

expansion

Watts makes a great in-line expansion device that pipes right in the cold water line. It's about 4" in diameter and 2 feet long. Real space saver. Have installed a couple and they work great. No problems so far.....

Why Not

use a regular expansion tank on a potable system?

reg tank

Regular tanks are ferrous. NO FERROUS allowed on Domestic.

Most Domestic Tanks will have a FULL Bladder (i.e. Domestic Water never contacts FERROUS material)
