T&T: DD aux heat leaks

remote, if you have even a temp gauge at the control console, or a warning light  
or, god forbid, a
bell or buzzer. :)




Exactly. People get so worked up over what would happen if that little red  
dot heater sprung a leak, or maybe one of the hoses would leak and the coolant  
level would go down and ruin everything. They check the bilge and the engine  
daily when cruising. Yet 48 other weeks of the year they run their car/truck  
with a huge radiator in front, vulnerable to all kinds of damage, never check 
 under the hood and think nothing of it. 
 
If you never go into the engine room and check there either, then disregard  
this message and carry on however you've been doing it.
