Title: Leak Insurance
Post by: Whamo on November 11, 2012, 09:22:38 AM

My wife gave me hell last week when a clamp became open somehow, and sugar water leaked all over my throw rug and hardwood floor.  I got a tub with wheels on it, about five inches tall and 18 inches by 36 inches or something at Target.  It worked like a champ when the same thing  happened last night.  I got it for $13.99.  I just wheel the bag to the bathroom and dump it.

It doesn't happen often, but I forget to close the camp on the sample line. When that happens, I'm glad I use one of the big blue storage tubs to hold my drain bag. When I'm done, I just drag it into the bathroom and toss the bag into the tub.
