This is my third one in 15 years "not bad"
Can't beleive any pool builder would build a pool that would require you to use a water hose to keep your pool filled on a regular basis, duh! But this little guy is a true savior that removes the headache of constantly monitoring and filling the pool not to mention possible over filling. I live in Arizona and the summers here are hot so evaperation is constant, but not a problem with this simple yet effective gadget. Works on the same principle as your toilet tank filler. I can just imagine the light that went off in some persons head that figured this system out. It's takes 5 mins to put together, I do recommend connecting a good quality dependalbe hose that can endure the elements of all day sun exposure like the "Zero-G" hose or the "RV/Marine white/blue hose ", which iI have used for years now, both great products. Since the hose stretches from the spigot to the edge of the pool, You may want to consider putting some orange paint or tape on the hose so people see it and don't trip over it. Note: YOU MUST PUT SOME PLUMBERS TAPE AROUND THE "THREATED" PARTS (2 OF THEM; ONE ON THE HOSE AND ONE ON THE UNIT) OR YOU WILL MOST LIKELY HAVE A LEAK! The plumber tape takes care of that issue perfectly. Now turn the water on and it should start to put water into the pool. With the pool water level already filled to the mid point of the skimmer openning, I used some tweezers to grab the hard to get to white stem that adjusts the shut-off point by pulling it up and turning it counter clockwise until it shut off. I did put some farely good size rocks inside the box area to weight it down. Lastly, I make sure my hose is straight so theres no tension to cause problems. that's it check it once or twice to make sure no leaks and filling correctly, then forget about it (well maybe check it from time to time)! I can't say enough how it has taken the stress and worry out of whether the pool has enough water 24/7 especially if you aren't home for a few days, because if the water level gets lower than the skimmer opening, your pump will run dry and burn it up. I saw another post on here that gave it a terrible review I just can't beleive given my experience which this product which includes it hasn't been abused by kids, dogs, mowers etc.

Excelente opción!!
Muy buena opción para rellenar de forma automática la alberca, equipo pequeño y apropiado. No he tenido ningún problema con el uso, 100% recomendado.

Works perfectly so far.
We have a small leak in the liner of our inground pool at our cottage, so we purchased this to keep the water level where it is supposed to be when we are not there to monitor it. It's been nearly a month and seems to be working perfectly.

Highly recommend this.
What a life saving device this is. Used it for my pool and now I never have to top up. Thinking of getting one for my koi pond. Highly recommend this.

Connections Important
The product is basic, so easy to fit and use. The only downfall with it is the connections, they aren't included unless you are in America. Tried purchasing a reinforced water pipe (Caravan) so it could handle the constant mains water pressure but the snap connection is the weakest link and only lasted a couple of days before bursting. If you aren't home, this water will keep running until you get home (sorry if you are overseas like I was) or if a friendly neighbour will notice the wastage and turn the tap off for you. I will be trying "Hoselink" once I return home as these seem to be the best product to use for hose connections that are under constant pressure.
