I've always been a homebody, so ATO systems are just about totally useless. However I am planning a long weekend in the next month, and would like some sort of suggestions for an ATO.
I have done some research and would rather have first hand reports. I need totally mechanical, and turn my nose up at anything that uses electric. I am looking for something "modular" that I can get out when needed, and hide when I am back at home (99.99985% of the time).
The less chance of individual component failure, the better. Aside from that I don't plan on using more water in the container than can really screw up my system during a total failure.
I was honestly going to diy rig up a toilette float valve, but as a plumber I know how often they fail....let alone to have it sitting in salt water.....I don't think it would last more than a few months. I am not beyond drilling out a sump, but would prefer not to.
