ATO

[Martin342]

Hi All
I’m very new to this and have just started my first cycle which seems to be going well… my question is about my ato.
it seems to be add a small amount of water 3-4 times per minute….. I know little and often is better but seems a little excessive to me. Little advice please. (Maybe I should top up and have the sensor completely under the water level as I’ve set it up half in and half out)
Thanks in advance

What model of ATO do you have? It depends on the sensitivity and type of sensor and sometimes placement to a lesser degree. Once the water drops, it triggers the ATO to add water until it reaches the level that you set. Sometimes it will turn on and off a couple of times in a short amount of time until that water level is reached and stabilizes. Is it going on 3-4 times a minute, EVERY minute all day long?
