I had the same issue with my replacement tank. I just found a plastic reducer, so a short piece of house that is the larger diameter, to the reducer, than the smaller diameter hose to the expansion tank.

Sorry it took so long for me to get back to you. I'm away from home for up to 6 weeks at a time and I have a lot of family time to catch up with.


Anyways all I did was use a brass hose reducer. If you google brass hose reducer you will see what I am talking about. Just need the size of the hoses you are using.
