Calling Electrical Guru's!

[Fishcrazy06]

I saw this on craigslist. I am not that electrically smart to say the least. But am thinking there are a numerous of different things one could do with all this. Would any of you be willing to throw me some ideas of what you could do with it? I know setup for ATO but what about a possible auto water changer? Or is it just a bunch of extra float switches and much more can be done other than the "normal ATO"? Thanks in advance. Here is the link:

Come on some of you DIY Guru's have to have some sort of ideas or plans in which one could do with all of this!

You could do a complete auto water change and top off....

Tank water gets low -> Float switch in sump kicks on -> turns on pump in reservoir

Reservoir water gets too low -> switch turns on - > solenoid to water valve turns on and runs water through RODI

Bi-Weekly timer on tank turns on and drains 33% tank water -> switch kicks on -> pump in salt water reservoir kicks on and tops off tank

salt tank gets too low -> switch kicks -> solenoid turns on, water through RODI to reservoir, measured salt pours into tank

Salt is ran on one of those pressure plates that raise water level in separate tank. When salt gets too low -> switch kicks -> water pumps from a series of under ground piping that pulls water from the ocean, boils the water out to extract salt and replenishes salt level

There you go...fully self contained system...with a few float valves to spare
