The Sun - Baltimore, Md. Author: Anne Haddad Date: Mar 12, 1996 Start Page: 1.B Section: METRO Text Word Count: 558 Abstract (Document Summary) A valve that regulates the mixing of hot and cold water was leaking diethyl ether from a diaphragm that expands and contracts according to the water temperature. The valve was probably weakened by a hot water heater set too high, said Vernon Smith, director of support services for Carroll County schools. "That was the source of the problem all along; it had nothing to do with the solar panels on top of the building," Mr. Smith said. The solar panels were the prime suspects when the odor was first noticed Jan. 23. The panels contained an antifreeze, and officials wondered whether that had leaked into the water system. The the odor came back Wednesday -- in a different part of the building. That ruled out the solar panels, and plumbers began to investigate further, Mr. Smith said. That same afternoon, a plumber discovered the faulty valve. Reproduced with permission of the copyright owner. Further reproduction or distribution is prohibited without permission.
