  • After receiving the water tank back from the welder, it was time to install it and redo the plumbing. Things did not work out exactly the way we wanted it to.
    After the install, we filled out the water and found out that the welds was still leaking. So we had to seal it up with some sealant.
    We let the Tri we loaded the motorcycles and the rest of our gear into the truck so they were ready to head to New Hampshire

    Honestly should have put in the hard plastic tanks.
    So much easier to deal with but will have to change everything. Worth it in the long run.

    Just a suggestion using dielectric unions at the tank will allow you to disconnect and re connect the tank with ease . Just a suggestion. Hope the goop holds.

    Adam, while looking at the picture or the welds you can clearly see the weld with no sealant on the right has pin holes/porosity on the surface, not sure what you were charged but anything over free was too much, not sure how that place is even in business. I have been welding for over 40 years the last 5 as a side hustle. I don’t understand how they did not at a minimum dye check or even fill the tank with water. My apologies. Tom

    • @cartdoc
      @cartdoc Місяць тому +1

      You never weld a water tank..or any other tank without a pressure test after cooling.. not in my shop

    • @amsoiladam
      @amsoiladam  29 днів тому +1

      I thought his welds looked pretty good, there was just one spot on the bottom where the tank was thin and he tried to fill it the best they could. It did not get pressure checked because I was there to pick it up the second he finished welding it. In fact, he welded in another bung for me while I was standing there waiting. I knew damn well that I should have put plugs in the holes and at least fill the tank halfway to make sure that those were good, but that’s my fault

      I have used it for some roof repairs and other things. But for this, I wanted something a little bit stronger and more durable and that 3M stuff is like flexseal on steroids.

    Why you did not go with plastic tank?

    • @amsoiladam
      @amsoiladam  29 днів тому

      Because stainless steel is definitely better than plastic in my opinion, and that tank was custom built to fit in its hole. There’s no way I was going to find somebody last-minute notice the manufacturer plastic tank for me to fit in a hole and no other RV uses.
