Can someone please verify where the water line should be on an ATO sensor? Should the water level be right at the bottom of the sensor(ATO Level Sensor), or the apex of the bottom sensor, or should it be right at the middle between the 2 sensor triangles of both sensors?

Thanks!

Some ATOs have a built in timer that doesn’t allow the pump to run any longer than it takes to top off the reservoir when it’s first plugged in. So, set the sensor where you want it to be with the water level slightly below the water line you want, plug it in, then allow it to reach its ideal monitoring height on its own.
Good luck!

HI there, please set the desired water level at the triangle tip of the bottom sensor (ATO level Sensor).

Thank you - it's most definitely nice to hear directly from the manufacturer :) I bought another one of these units, and I just thought of it what I should be setting the water level at. My first unit then was done incorrectly, as I was putting the water line almost to the top of the fail safe sensor. Oops.
