Too thin: air pump accessory

Very thin float, limited to very light applications, probably only in aquariums. I tried it on a small 18" diameter fountain and had a hard time getting it to work even though I set the water pressure to near zero. I ended up ordering another one, in a different design, which works well.

Pros
  • Cool product
Cons
  • Volume

Excellent price. Easy installation!

Works great especially for the price. Only gave it 4 stars because we had to modify the arm to work without a pump. (We added an extension to reach the water level). That works great. Went on holiday and had no problems with the water level for the pump when debris clogged the inlet.

Pros
  • Great for me
Cons
  • Not sure

Clogs easily, float broke within a week

Had this bucket for watering chickens. It seemed to work for a while, but then it stopped flooding. It turns out it has a tiny water hole in it and clogs it up very easily. Cleaned and not refilled in one day. The swimmer came off the pole. Very cheap, I will go with another.

Pros
  • Best
Cons
  • Compatibility

ideal for fountains

Bought to screw on a garden hose. similar to what's in your toilet tank works the same way. From a fountain, pond or cattle tanks this will work. The water level is reached, the float shuts off the water.

Pros
  • Lots of positive emotions
Cons
  • Some difficulties

Cheap. And the first arrived with a broken bobber although boxed

This is a good compact size for my protein skimmer sump. And everything is plastic except for the stainless steel screw for adjusting the float level. However, it arrived with a broken float. I was surprised even though I read that the same thing happened to someone else when they saw this. Revain quickly replaced him. So it really works. Just hope it doesn't break and flood my house with water as it keeps the water level in my swamp.

Pros
  • Perfect for outdoor activities
Cons
  • Secret

Suitable for filling a whirlpool

Received this along with an adapter https://smile.amazon.com/gp/product/B000FJZYR0 for filling hot tubs. I press a (somewhat stiff) garden hose against the tub's lid, and this float valve shuts off the water at whatever depth I set. I wouldn't use a super flexible hose for this purpose - it can rise with the water level. The fill rate is less than a hose alone, but I don't have to keep an eye on it to keep it from overflowing. Set it and forget it as they say. Go to the store, get your hair…

Pros
  • All right!
Cons
  • Dear
