SO...
I am getting ready for a cruise to Mexico..
Wanting to make sure all water levels and stuff is good for my bud to feed the fish I started to do a top off....
I had the hose from the sink to the top of the emporer 400. I use the small slots to hold the hose from the RO unit. I don't heat it or anything, it's small amounts and the tank temp doesn't drop...
SO we had to run to get new clothes... I need a glass of water... I disconnect the hose and get me my water and we go on our happy shopping way....
4 hours later, I have to drop the wife off @ home cause my best bud needs my help...Cell rings, she asks are you draining the tank? I'm alll Umm no, I filled it WHY ? she's all Umm it's like 8 in down from the top ! The dam hose was in the top of the water and there was a siphoin from the intake on the Emporer into my sink ! powerheads JUST under the water and 80% of the heater not in the water... Tube just sizzling away .. Thaks Ebo for making a killer heater that didn't crack !
SO now I'm making 13 gallons of water and have a heater in it with a powerhead... I have work in the morning and I need to get to sleep... I'm gonna wait as long as I can and see what the temp gets to and hope for the best....
Wish me luck !
