Looking at investing in a DOS QD for auto water changes. Anyone else doing awc and what equipment are you using to do it?
 
I used the Dos for awc, mine is the older model and quite loud….but it lives in garage so the noise doesn’t bother me.
I don’t use the high low sensors, which is the preferred/ safer method I hear
I just periodically check calibration and check salinity often

How far do you have the DOS lines running to reach the tank?
 
I use two DOS units...one for AWCs and one for dosing. DOS is about 20 feet from the drain and roughly 6 feet from the Brute containing new saltwater. I have it run monday through friday changing roughly 5 gallons a day in a 210 gallon system.
 

WHICH KIND OF INVERT HAS CAUSED THE MOST MISCHIEF IN YOUR TANK?
