ATK anti-siphon valve noise

Any thoughts on reducing the constant ticking in the tank sound it makes? It is in an open stand and driving me and the kids nuts. Every hour when it goes off the kids say "Dad the tanks peeing again!" LOL

If you don’t have an issue with potential siphon, just take it out

I know exactly what you mean though. I don’t mind it as it sort of reminds me it’s working! Lol

What if you place the tubing and anti-siphon inside a scrap piece of PVC pipe which would capture the spray?

That's a good idea, going to try that. Thanks

Let me know how it works out. I never thought about this until seeing your post.

Made this so now to wait for the pee break.

Works great, just a quick burst of air and then all you hear is slight sound of pump. Thanks for the idea!

Excellent! Glad it worked.

My reservoir is out in my garage so I never actually hear the trickling sound in the house. But I'm sure that would be annoying.

Great idea with the PVC cap.
