You can have your R/O system tee off to your tank with a float valve. You will need a float valve and a solenoid to get it setup.

You can run the hose all the way to your tank, for our auto top offs in the store we have a network of airline tubing trough the store that feed them. They run from the front of the store all the way to the back. We don't have any problems with it.

I am going to do this too. What do you need the solenoid for? Or use it for?

It turns your R/O system off when the float valve(s) in engaged. You can put a float valve in your water change tank and another float valve in your sump to top off.

Would that do the same thing as the auto-shutoff from airwaterice.com?

yupp thats it the one for $12.95. I don't know how good that brand works but I know the new ones from aquafx turn the system off right away. Some take longer than the others.

Right on. Yeah it works great. Never had a problem. Also have a backup on hand in-case it breaks.
Thanks for the info. I am finishing up the piping this week. I have put it off too long!!!
