JBJ ATO quick question

ok so i see it has a float valve, but is there a backup system? i mean what if that valve gets stuck on and it just keeps pumping? i think i saw something about a timer that if it gets stuck open after a certain amount of time it will shut off? is this right?

ahhh i c

 

The ATO unit will fun for 7 min STOCK, you can open the unit up and turn clockwise to shorten pump runtime.

I did Mode A and placed Sensor 1 where I wanted my water level in my fuge and installed Sensor 2 upside down higher then Sensor 1. This will act as a fail safe if sensor 1 fails.... It worked very well for over a year when I used my JBJ..

ohhhhhhhh sneaky sneaky! why did you stop using it?

 

I bought a Apex Controller, I'm looking to sell my JBJ. Just haven't had the time to post it.

 

apex is better? wish i had known i woulda picked it up haha

 

I would say it's better, but its more than a ATO.
