I was thinking of getting a float valve but i have been filling up these tubs for a while now and 3 and a half hours is pretty much perfect and the timer was only 10 bucks.

In my opinion doing manual fills in this way will allow your media to go much further. Not that you asked for my opinion but...

Fish room's looking food btw!
That is a good idea I have noticed that whenever i turn on my rodi without a brand new di it always starts at like 5ppm then goes down to 0ppm.
