Bradford White RG250T6N installed along with Thermal Expansion tank. This is a newer way we are installing our thermal expansion tanks. They are actually strapped to the side of the tank. When the expansion tank fails and possibly even leaks it should minimize damage to the water heater.
A 4" 26ga metal vent was also installed. Heavy backdrafting had occurred in this house and as a result the 30ga metal initially used for the flue pipe was insufficient.

AO Smith water heater installed in this Merriam home. The water pressure was 100 psi so we installed a PRV to lower it to 70 psi. There was also an issue with an outside hosebibb which we were able to fix. When the water was turned back on one of the faucets started to leak. We replaced a seal inside the faucet free of charge to the HO.
