I have 2 of the German/ French thermo pots to which I am intent on installing bottom drains. I have already made a hole large enough to install my pipe work and removed the foam from one pot.
I have done a search for builders foam. What I have found is that most foams have a 50 deg limit on usage. I reckon my maximum operating temperatures are 75 degs....
Is this something that I should worry about?

Re: Foam Filler
