We got all the towels out and there doesn't seem to be any water damage behind the refrig, or cabinets.

It looks like the thread that secures the inner rubber core just disintegrated, i have a friendly call to carefree in the morning.

Is this a DIY? or does it take multiple people, ladders and cursing to fix this?
I had the same thing happen to me last year - zipped the non-UV thread. I bought a 50' roll off the Jungle site and used 17' of it. It was a DIY job for me. Come to North Florida and I'll let you use some of the remainder of my roll and help you install it. Or I can just ship you the roll (or fraction of it - less weight) at your expense.

PM me if intertested.
