A buffer tank for a water heater is provided. The A buffer tank for a water heater may include a storage unit, a first connection pipe, and a second connection pipe. The storage unit has a space for storing water inside, an inlet, to which hot water is flowed from the outside, in the upper part thereof, and an outlet, from which the water stored inside is discharged, in the lower part thereof. The first connection pipe is formed in the inner space of the storage unit, has a tube form, is connected to the inlet, and is extended to a direction of the lower part of the storage unit. The second connection pipe is formed in the inner space of the storage unit, has a tube form, is connected to the outlet, and is extended to a direction of the upper part of the storage unit.

An expansion vessel (101, 201) for use in a fluid circuit of a heating or cooling system (102) defines a fluid inlet port (103) and further defines a fluid outlet port (104), separate from the fluid inlet port (103). The separate fluid inlet and outlet ports (103, 104) allow fluid to flow through the expansion vessel (101, 102) along a fluid flow path from the fluid inlet port (103) to the fluid outlet port (104) to avoid stagnation of fluid within the expansion vessel (101, 201). A method of installing the expansion vessel (101, 201) in a heating or cooling system (102) having a fluid circuit. A heating or a cooling system (102) comprising a fluid circuit provided with the expansion vessel (101, 201).

A composite storage tank module, tank, and arrangement wherein a composite storage tank module comprises at least one hollow section adapted to house a medium. The storage tank module is an elongated self-supporting structure produced from a composite material constituted of at least a first and second material. The composite storage tank module and arrangement are adapted to be embedded in a building structure, preferably a double flooring or a wall.

The present invention relates to a fluid circulation type heating device which circulates fluid by means of heating and cooling and, more particularly, to a fluid circulation type heating device provided with overpressure protection element which can prevent pressure increase of a circulation path of a fluid. The fluid circulation type heating device according to the present invention for achieving the aforementioned purpose comprises a circulation line, a heat radiation member installed on the circulation line, a boiler which heats and expands a fluid, a storage tank which stores the fluid therein and supplies the same to the boiler, a controller which controls the boiler, and a housing which accommodates the boiler and the controller. In addition, the device has an opening formed in fluid communication with the storage tank or the circulation line, and further comprises an overpressure protection element which blocks the opening, wherein the overpressure protection element is configured to prevent fluid from passing through and allowing a vapor of the fluid to pass through, thereby dropping the pressure of the storage tank and the circulation line. The fluid circulation type heating device according to the present invention discharges, to the outside, steam from the inside of a circulation path and does not discharge fluid to the outside, thereby preventing overpressure loaded onto the fluid circulation path of a heating device. In addition, should the heating device fall over, it is possible to prevent fluid from being discharged to the outside. Furthermore, it is possible to prevent external foreign material from being introduced into the circulation path, thereby preventing damages of components or generation of odor, due to contamination of fluid caused from the external foreign material.
