New Pressure Tank in Hydronic System Issue
I just installed a new pressure tank in my hydronic system. It said it
was pre-charged to 12 psi. When refilling the system I think I did a good job of eliminating the air as there is little noise when the circulator is running, plus there is a Spirovent installed. I like to keep the system pressure at between 15 and 20 lbs. but I noticed the pressure seems to drop back to 0 quite often. Then when I add water, the pressure seems to rise very quickly. The only thing I can think of is that I have no air cushion. I did not check the tank pressure before installing. What is wrong and what should I do? I'd like not to have to drain the system again. Thanks in advance. Frank |
