Has anyone thought of connecting an air pump to an ATO system instead of a water pump?
I had an idea to do this today and thought it would be a good idea. You could run the air into a sealed reservoir while another line is running out of the reservoir into the tank. When the air pumps into the container it'll push the water into the tank. It completely removes any possibility of a water pump running dry and burning out. You will also hear when it needs to be refilled without having to check regularly.
