Oh man, that's would be infinitely worse to be on vacation and not be able to fix it right away. We've literally had to replace almost all of the major mechanicals in this place since November—and now this. The previous owners really left us with a mess. Our home inspector didn't catch any of the problems either.

The extensive tile work we just had done surrounding the pellet stove might have to be ripped out and redone as well. Come on BTC! Lol.

The company we hired is replacing the galvanized steel with stainless and it has a lifetime warranty. I'll rest well at night knowing that.
