[MW:2517] Re: 2513] Brine Tank Material Selection

Thanks,

The tank is about 4' diameter and 5' high. I have been considering a
lined tank, but due to space restrictions the tank has to be installed
in sections. It would require welding the tank, then applying or
repairing the lining, which I would like to avoid.
