Wow, I'm sorry to hear that! How horrible. Luckily you caught the leak now before something burst, though. If you need an extra hand, I'm down the road, lol
. Good luck with the switch over, let us know how it goes.

Will your new tank still fit on the stand that your hb made?
I hear ya about the 380, the only way I could get by doing that would be to tear out our huge bay window in the front room and...hey...:thinking:
ha ha
Keep us posted.
