My first big question is would that be too much weight on the first floor. My basement is finished and right below the tank is my sons bedroom and a catastrophic accident is not an option. Putting in floor braces is not an option.
The bonus I think is a metal I beam is almost directly under the middle of the tank. The floor joists run parallel to the tank if that matters.
What are your thoughts on it being safe to put my tank their.
How many have large tanks on a second floor without additional bracing under your tanks? Have you ever had issues? Would you do it again?
