Hi,
I have Well-x-trol WX-203 in the hous I moved into about 6 months ago. I have had no problems until this week, when I noticed a small puddle underneath the front of the tank. The leak is a drip about every 5 seconds or so and filled an aluminum turkey pan about an inch and half in about seven days. I checked the valvels at the front and they do not apear to be the problem. The actual drip falls from the bottom of the tank stand. I can not look underneath to see the bottom, but when I put my hand under the tank stand the tube coming from the bootom of the tank feels moist. I assume the link is coming from somewhere at the bottom of the tank and running down the tube and on to the inside of the tank stand where it froms up to drip on the floor. Obviously, little leaks can turn into big problems. I am concerned and would like any advice on how to approach a fix or should I just call plumber? I am also concerned about the cost of a plumber, especially because I am new to the area and do not who is reputable and who is going to take advantage. I am pretty handy and have saved a lot of money over the years through careful research and doing things myself. I also know my limitations and do not want to create a bigger disaster if I could just fork out a couple of hundred dollars.
Any help would be aprreciated..!!!
Thanks Gogi
