When water is heated... It expands! Reacting to physical law, water OPEN SYSTEM expands in volume as its temperature rises. In the "Good Old" days Before the advent of cross-connection control, expanded water that exceeded the capacity of the water heater flowed back to the city main, where it easily dissipated. It was "open" at the city supply side of the system, even though it was "closed" on the system COLD side. WATER SUPPLY Cross connection means "no return" Today, with back flow prevente
