Performance Platinum 40 Gal. Tall 12 Year 40,000 BTU ENERGY STAR Natural Gas Water Heater
1) Specs say it's a nominal 38 gallons? Where am I losing 2 gallons?
2) I'm in west central Florida, natural gas energy source. There are no expansion tanks installed around here, so it's safe to assume it's an open system? So none needed?
3)There is a pressure valve outside on a hose bib (see photo) probably good idea to replace with new install? Is this instead of expansion tank?
4) Is installing a straight 3/4 ball valve type drain recommended for future maintenance? What size fitting is needed, as threads are probably recessed
