Hi all, it's been a bit. I got a 15 gal IM ATO reservoir. Beautiful. Unfortunately it is higher than my sump so my hose can be below the water line. What is everyone else doing to stop the siphon of fresh water into the sump?
Thanks for any help and hope everyone is well....
- I can raise the end of the exit side of the tube above the waterline in the sump. This will have water falling almost a foot since the waterline in my return chamber is much lower.
- I have an older Smart ATO that did not come with siphon valve. I can find one of those.
- I read someone someone was putting the exit hose in a larger tube, not sure about this one.
- Keep the water line in my ATO reservoir below by exit tube. (But that's why I got this large ATO Res right...)
Thanks for any help and hope everyone is well....
