The lack of an overflow causing the tank to implode is a bit weak and smacks of improvisation by the tea lady while the executives are away in Hawaii researching ways of testing sand for softness. |

Sounds about right! What do you think of one way valve idea,it would work,but tricky to organise I would have thought.(Somebody) |

What does the mesh look like on the inside, is it choked up? Unless the top was locked it would also lift up to let air/water out then drop down. How complicated is the inlet? A wide angle pic would help. |

The vents are and were as clear as a whistle. i3.photobucket.com i3.photobucket.com Close up and as wide as I can get it. |

| 1114172 | 2010-06-29 00:27:00 | i would check the threads of the lid don't block the vents off. an odd ball thought......how level is the tank? has the ground shifted? to much weight on one side, add in high temps making plastic soft, the tank could have distorted and with all those tons of water pushing could have distorted the tank enough to pull the top in. |

Lid only 50mm deep. Tank on very hard ground,so still level. |
