Lindsay Resin Tank Structural Leak

Water leaks from the base of the mineral (resin) tank

This repair may involve working with high voltage components or water connections. Always unplug the appliance before removing any panels.

If you are not confident in your ability to perform this repair safely, we strongly recommend contacting a professional technician.

Possible Causes

Cracked fiberglass tank, Damaged tank threads, Over-pressurization, Impact damage to tank

Safety first: Immediately shut off water and depressurize the system. A leaking pressure vessel can fail catastrophically.

Confirm source: Dry the tank and inspect for hairline cracks or weeping at the base or sidewall.
Do not attempt repair: Do not patch or glue a pressurized resin tank. It must be replaced.
Replace tank: Have a qualified technician transfer the Lindsay control valve and resin to a new, compatible pressure tank, or replace the entire softener if the tank is aged.
