Title: frozen or banjacked
Post by: ray l on December 09, 2010, 07:31:57 pm

Help

Spent the day trying to get ready for tomorrow

I spent the day defrosting pipes and changing burst fittings.

I finally got water to membrain ( and waste water running out )

The problem is no water is going into the tank. I,ve had water flowing for about 1-2 hours.

Is the membrain likely to be frozen after this lengh . or would it  be the pipe from membrain to tank( I,ll check this in the daylight tomorrow)  or

after 2 weeks frozen could the membrain be banjacksed.

thanks Ray

If the membranes have been frozen for an hour theyre going to need replacing.

 I think your membranes will be ok - mine are and they have been frozen solid twice this past week.

  Have you put it on backflush by accident?

Thanks

I was lucky enough went out thismorning to check pipes after membrain.
and everything was defrosted .

Spoke to the store i use and they said its usually a 50 50 call as to wether the membrain
survives after been frozen

One to keep an eye on this winter
