    That's a lot of glycol to fix a leak?

    Any Tanker Truck Services in the area?

    Test it to make sure it is worth saving and reusing, the ph in the 7's is an indication that it needs to be replaced or boosted.

    Can't just isolate the section and work on.
    That is what i do
    I have a couple of 550 gallon tanks for big sections.
    But usually 10) 55 gallon barrells do the trick.

    If you call most chemical suppliers or recycling companies, you can get “clean” empty IBC totes of glycol delivered with a deposit. Be sure ot always label the totes properly before you fill them for safety reasons.

    But a mentioned, 55 gallon barrels could be easier. Your call. But I’d probably rent a forklift and just use 4-5 large totes. You can stack them 2 high to save space.
