Timing of filling up IBC tank from RO System

[Edward Baskerville]

Hi guys, currently me and my colleague fill 1000 litre Ibc tank from our RO system. Recently it normally takes 8-10 hours to fill to the top.. couple times whilst we have been at work we have forgot to nip back and turn the water off and it has over flowed out on to the floor. Can anyone recommend anything to combat this I.e timers from the main tap of the house?

regards Ed

Float switch and solenoid works for me.

Or, drill a half inch hole near the top. Run a garden hose from said hole to a water butt or another IBC tank, double storage ?

Don't think even @spruce is that cheap.

Solenoid shut off is a worthy investment and not too expensive. Easy to fit, even I managed it.
