Hello everyone, I plan to run the spectrapure ultra ato and was wondering what you would suggest for awc. I will be running tubing under my crawl space about 50 feet away. It's all on the same floor but it would have to pull up from the storage tank and into the sump so not much head pressure. Please tell me what you think. Thanks

I don't use Litermeters for AWCs but I will say they are absolutely bullet proof and reliable. I've been using them for twenty years and never had one fail.

Are you already running an Apex? If so, I would go with the DOS. I have been doing daily AWCs with no issues at all. That being said, I have never used anything but the DOS, so I can't really say if something is better than it or not.

I love my LM3, have had AWC setup for a year now and it’s flawless. Virtually no maintenance on the pumps and they last forever. Also using their ATO for last 5 years and no issues.

I also have a Apex and chose this over the DOS
