I was filling the tank as part of sanitizing. It was taking forever to fill, so I stuck the hose in and started to run some water through the faucets (until I smelled bleach) to do in parrallel. When I got back out, water was coming out around the hose, so I pulled it out, and then not only was water coming out the vent, but water was shooting back out the main gravity fill.

I'm not sure how long it did this, but more than a few seconds, probably 15 seconds or more. When I looked in the outside storage compartment under the kitchen counter where the fresh water drain and part of the tank is, I found the piece of wood that is under the tank was laying in the compartment and the tank was bulging down a good 4-6".

No idea if I did permanent damage, or whether any damage was done to the top of the tank or if all the bulging occurred in that spot. I'm draining the tank again to see if I can get that piece of wood back in place, which I imagine functioned as a support for the tank.

Then, I guess I will refill and see if there are any obvious signs of leaking.

Any thoughts on what I can check for damage? I'm leaving on a five day trip in the morning.
