It's always a good safety feature to have a smallish fresh water top off container, say a five gallon bucket. That way if some thing fails in the auto top system and it sticks on or a syphon is created you don't flood your tank with to much fresh water. Another float switch/ timer can feed the five gallon from a larger storage container.
Very important it can't continue a syphon for sure.

I use a clear plastic sterilite bin (kind with the white lids). It's about 5 gallons, and he a float valve in it, and a ball valve that only let's it refill very slowly from the RO storage container... (so if something happens with the topoff process, there is limited water that can be added.
