Check temperature setting on tank , you may need to turn it from warm to hot. Make sure your water shut off valve is turned on above the hot water tank on the hot water side.Another possibility is the heating element:If you have a gas heater, did the pilot light go out? If so, relighting the pilot will take care of the problem.If you have an electric heater, was it restarted in the right order? (Don't turn the circuit switch on unless the tank is filled-- if tank is empty when power restored, the heating elements will burn out and need to be replaced.)

Why do some hot water heaters need thermal expansion tanks and others do not?

I believe that the larger the hot water tank, the greater is the need for an expansion tank. Water expands as it is heated. This is why all hydronic heating systems require an expansion tank.

Some areas require backflow prevention, but not all. Have to check with local plumbing authority about that.
