just wanted to remind everyone to check and secure your ato lines. i had a mishap this morning that lead to more than 8 gallons of water on to my carpet which i am now trying to soak up using towels. i had my ato line suction cupped to the side of my sump but i guess it came loose and the pressure from the pump kicking on must have knocked it out of the tank and since the tank didnt get any of that water the sensor never turned the pump off causing it to completely empty my almost full 10 gallon reservoir over the course of a few hours and since my ato pump is so quiet i didnt notice it till i heard the gurgling of it pulling air. so please learn from my stupidity and properly secure your ato lines.
