Setting up hydrofill ato

[pgravis]

I picked up the hydrofill and corresponding pump last week and set it up, but I'm confused as to how to position my sensors. Do you keep them close to hve a narrow range? I had mine probably an inch apart and got home today and the ato pumped an extra 2-3 inches of water into my sump (it's a 75 gallon sump, so quite a bit of water). I'm sure it's user error, but it made me curious to see some pics of how people have placed their sensors and the hose brackets. Thanks.

I've set one of these up for a client and seems to be running fine for the past 3 months.

I set the sensors about 2"-3" apart in height. And I run them on opposite sides of the sump.

Maybe give that a shot. And are you sure it was the ATO? I know a few people who have set up ATO's with a reservoir taller than their sump water line. Which would create a syphon and keep dripping into your sump after your pump is shut off.

I'm sure you are right with the water reservoir being higher than the sump. I knew it must be user error on my part! Thanks for the advise. I will change that.
