I usually only keep it 1/3 full though because I don't want to dump 20 gallons of water into my sump if the float valve ever failed. The automation is great. I like never having to think about freshwater top off, however if I had the space I would have liked to have a separate RO storage container and a separate RO top off container.
My system uses a solenoid on a timer so it only opens twice a day for 5 minutes. And that's just to fill the pail. There is still the tunze osmoregulator controlling the actual filling of the sump from that bucket. Double redundancy makes me happy



The new AWC has an RODI section and a FSW section that the profilux will control





Not quite done yet though!
