Hi all,
Just wanted to run something past the experts on here as I've just tested my first brite tank and I think it has an issue but want to get some thoughts before I chase it up with the supplier.
I have a 7 bbl brite tank that i'm testing. I filled it up with water to 225 gl and then left it over night. When I came back the next day I noticed water on the ground. I thought it was just the condensation building up. Then I noticed the level has dropped to approx 212 gl. There wasn't a lot of water maybe a gallon but definitely not 12+. It appears to be leaking from the legs so I can only assume there is a leak internally and it has filled the bottom of the tank jacket until it reached the welds for the legs and is slowly leaking from there.
Does this sound correct? Anyone have any ideas on how I could further test for leaks? I visually inspected inside but can't see anything wrong.
Any thoughts on what I should do are appreciated?
Thanks all!
