I currently have the AutoAqua Smart Micro ATO (which has been discontinued) and am considering an upgrade.
My sump level will occasionally fluctuate due to my Durso doing some funky stuff (topic for another day!). When the water level fluctuates, the ATO will usually figure out something is wrong and sound the alarm instead of topping off (although it's slightly annoying because it has to be manually reset to begin functioning again). However, the other day, instead of sounding the alarm, it did dump a couple gallons into my DT (which is a 200g+ so was ok).
Overall I've been satisfied with the ATO, although I'm wondering how the Tunze Osmolator 3155 compares? Is it any "smarter"? Meaning, if it detects an abnormality in water level (ie. Durso fluctuating), will it just sound the alarm like the AutoAqua and stop working altogether until reset? Or will it come back online itself once the water level returns to an expected level?
I'm trying to determine if the Tunzes $215 price tag will buy additional "smarts" over the AutoAqua?
