Float switch

Murr7 · Jan 25, 2017

I am looking for a high quality float switch to use with my controller to control my ato. I currently have a cheap one in use but it continuously gets stuck in the closed position and doesn't add top off water. I am looking to replace it and would appreciate any suggestions on which float switch is everyone's favorite. Thanks

All of the plastic ones I've seen are of the same quality. how old is yours? are you cleaning it?

That is a bummer to hear. It's about two months old and it hasn't been cleaned in 3 weeks. Unfortunately with my job I have been living out of a hotel for the last 3 weeks and that float is stuck in the closed position. Thank god for apex because the salinity rose continuously and it sent me an alarm and I got someone to visually inspect it. They moved the float up and down and it did not have any affect.
