Wade and I.

« on: September 13, 2007, 04:10:16 PM »

Wade made a fresh batch today, and the blue line that's connected to the sac was faulty .... now our entire drawer is full of fluid - not just the sac!

Has this happened to anyone?

ARRRGHHH! :rant;

Yes.  Use an extra drain line as a siphon line and siphon out as much as you can.  Two lines will make it faster.

You All Jinx'd us. I had 14 minutes left.... Linda said you have a Red alarm on the pure flow - Fluid in Tub :rant;
I can't see where it is leaking from yet..... Here's the Lot#FG070723-03. The way I do it is once the bag is empty I cut it open and see which is the drain line - I stick it in the tub and tie a knot in the other - works lik a champ.......... I have tuperware lid I put on the alarm in the tub..... when our AC came on it was causing condensation AND alarms.... that's how I beat that one.....
