I wanted to write a review because of all bad press these little floats have gotten. (fresh water setup)
In the pictures above, you will see where I used the blue tubing kit and I baught the extra tubing just incase I messed up.
Runing the tubing (hidden) along behind the shelf, I did put in the (provided) ballvalve to cut off the water at the tank.
Under the sink, I used two Ice maker line kits with the taps. One to the hot and one to the cold. This will balance the desired temp to the tank. The line tap valves allow me to adjust the temp and the preasure on the float. (This is the key).
If your float bypasses after its all hooked up and full? Simply shut the preasue on the line tap valves. (problem salved).
Everything you see, I got with three kits. No extra parts were used.
Notice the extra "T" with valve? This is for the ice maker on the fridge. If you are worried about warm water to the ice maker? Science has proven, hot water freezes faster and cleaner.
Well! I just found out I can not "Link" so. The searchable names of the products below.

Love it! I’ve missed my morning coffee before because I didn’t realize until too late that the reservoir was empty. I’m so glad to have my mornings simplified even one little step more. Great product, bracket worked surprisingly well. I’m working on a way to modify the lid so I don’t have dust, but for now a piece of plastic wrap keeps out stuff.

I've tried to make this work for the past 3 weeks. Every morning I wake up to check it, and every time it's overfilled. One of the first days I didn't check until late in the day, and by then it overfilled the sump & flooded the room a bit.
It comes with NO instructions or paperwork of any kind. You assemble and adjust it by guess-work. I had no idea why it wasn't working right so I tried lots of things: different heights, different compartments, change angle of water line coming in, tighten everything, etc I moved it out of the motor compartment, worrying churning water was to blame. Tried turning pumps' speed way back, worried the current was an issue. Nope -- still overfills.
Pictured is how i found it today: water covering the float by inches. If I don't drain the excess water, it WILL KEEP RISING until it overflows the sump tank completely
My pressure coming in shouldn't be too much. It's coming off my RO water filtration system via 1/4" tubing. This is a common way people fill big tanks.
I read other reviews who said the "simple" solution was to cut the water supply off to it when you're not around. But doesn't that defeat the purpose of an automatic system??
