Happily, the company (Amtrol) realized that there was no way this tank should be
failing, and is replacing the $1200 tank under warranty. I'm off to pick it up
now. This is an extremely positive development. When I get the old one out I'll
cut it open and report on a post mortem.


Did Amtrol acknowledge other similar failures with that specific tank?
You'd think they'd like to disect it to pinpoint (no pun intended) why
it failed.


I didn't talk to Amtrol, our heating contractor did, so I can't answer that
question.


Turns out my Dad (in Poulsbo) has a radiant heating system with Amtrol
componants also, just curious what you find out. Thanks.
