    I Pressure builds on its own inside this water tank?

    Its a M3 threaded hole where the pin goes that’s needed to let water from the bottle into the arms.

    Thanks for all your suggestions @sophiecentaur @Lnewqban @Baluncore I think it‘s a faulty GL32 cap which lets the water through. Below are some more pictures to illustrate the design.

    thanks @Baluncore , valid suggestions. I think it will complicate the design too much, though. I will just have to give the customer the warning of potential thermal pressure causing leaks if not used.

    Thanks @sophiecentaur for chiming in. The pressure relief happens indeed when water is let out (and air in). The hole at the top isn't that big of an issue as it can easily be plugged temporarily when refilling and turned upside down. Your vent tube, @sophiecentaur , might be effective but not...

    Hi Baluncore, Thanks, I think you‘re on point. The pressure build up happens overnight when we turn our AC off and the room warms up. How could I potentially counter that? Small hole at the top of the glass bottle?

    Hey guys, It‘s been a few years since I had my last physics class so please be kind to me. I came here to ask you about a phenomenon I recently discovered in a design of mine. The object in question is a stand with 3 arms, holding a water tank (see pic below). All openings are pretty tightly...
