tibbsy07 Posted February 6, 2015 Share Posted February 6, 2015 I've been pretty happy with my puratek ATO in lol I bet you have - that's an expensive ATO. Link to comment
12_egg_Omelette Posted February 6, 2015 Share Posted February 6, 2015 I haven't had enough time to fully fine tune it, got it installed last night and removed water to test it out and everything is working as it should. I'm gone for four days and I'm not going to lie, I'm kinda paranoid about an over flow. Link to comment
pastelball Posted February 6, 2015 Author Share Posted February 6, 2015 Been looking at the autoaqua ato. Link to comment
Eisernes Posted February 6, 2015 Share Posted February 6, 2015 Another small, reliable, low cost ATO option is the Avast ATO. Link to comment
uwdanno Posted February 6, 2015 Share Posted February 6, 2015 Been using the tsunami ato. Cheap. Works Link to comment
iadubber Posted February 6, 2015 Share Posted February 6, 2015 I'm sure OP wants something that fits in either chamber in the overflow. I'm following looking for recommendations too. I've never seen the Tsunami. That looks like it'd fit nicely in the pump chamber. Link to comment
12_egg_Omelette Posted February 6, 2015 Share Posted February 6, 2015 Puratek is a sensor about half the size of s stick of gum. It can stick on glass of plastic. If you have no space this is the way to go. Link to comment
iadubber Posted February 6, 2015 Share Posted February 6, 2015 Been using the tsunami ato. Cheap. Works Does the control box need to be above the air pressure sensor? I'm trying to figure out how that one works. Link to comment
pastelball Posted February 6, 2015 Author Share Posted February 6, 2015 Yes, looking for something small. Some good suggestion Link to comment
Neebles Posted February 6, 2015 Share Posted February 6, 2015 I used the nano version from autotopoff.com with an aqualifter on my nano for a while, then on my 75. They are pretty cheap and work well. Link to comment
uwdanno Posted February 6, 2015 Share Posted February 6, 2015 Does the control box need to be above the air pressure sensor? I'm trying to figure out how that one works. Mine is. Not sure if it HAS to be. Its very interesting. Works on pressure sensing. I have it pair up with an Aqua Lifter vacuum so it fills very slow. There are a couple others here on the forum that have it as well. Some people initially get concerned that the water level has to drop about an inch in the chamber before it kicks in. I was VERY nervous at that too but I've been watching my salinity levels often and feel perfectly fine that I am not seeing swings. I have an IM Nuvo 4 gal. Link to comment
Cameron6796 Posted February 7, 2015 Share Posted February 7, 2015 There are so many out there it is hard to narrow down affordable and reliable ones that won't cost more then the tank itself. Link to comment
