I am with Dale...I check several muni codes..Il, Ca, Mich, and none require tanks...but all
require the safety valve at 150PSI

Where do you live please!?? Really sounds like make work for plumbers...I bet the code says
optional tank OR safety valve//...I do not think the expense of a tank (useless IMHO) when safety
pressure relief valve installed (correctly)...

Interesting:

Expansion tanks being required for hot water tanks is
definitely a
new one. Sounds a bit like a "make work for
plumbers" rule. Where
by the way do you live? Wonder what they require for
tankless
heaters, and point of use water heaters. I'd be
interested in
reading their requirements statute.

You need an expansion tank when your

requires it. We had never had one until this
year when the
water heater had to be replaced. The new water
heater was
required to have an expansion tank (instead of
the relief
valve) and then has to be inspected by our
city after
installation is complete.
