show me your ato setups

Furnace humidifier float valve connected to ro/di. Was planning on getting a storage tank and place it between the floor joists to gravity feed it but works fine as is.

That works well too. I like topping off from a small reservoir because I know I can only ever dump 20 gallons into my system if something does fail. That might wipe things out too though I suppose!

i like the humidifier float valve idea
where did you find that!
i need to find a way to install it with out drilling holes or silicone due to the tank is running now

i used pvc primer and glue to mount my float (BRS model) to the side of my emergency overflow pipe which is also pvc. Works great if you have a way of mounting a piece of pipe (have bulkhead).

Valve was from Home Depot. No drilling to the tank, just a piece of plexi with a slot so could adjust valve height, then siliconed into the corner of the sump.

I've got the same home depot humidifier float valve for the ATO on my nanos ghetto sump. The valve is gravity fed from an empty salt bucket filled with RO/DI water weekly.

I use the Tunze systemm well worth the $250 I spent... It has never failed me.

Nice thing about it is that it has all the alarms for too much water, or too little in your tank.

Sorry, can't get a picture due to how my sump is positioned in the stand but I bought some ATOs from autotopoff.com. Far cheaper then the Tunze and they are all wired and ready to go. Just add a pump and position the float switches on the mount. I use an aqualifter connected to a 4 gallon bottle of RO/DI. They have one or two float switch systems. The two switch is good as the second one is used as a cut off if the water level gets to high.
