Title: local vendor for ATO Top off switch
Post by: Rybren on October 11, 2011, 08:50:46 AM
The lower float switch on my ATO is starting to go on me.  It has failed 3 times in the last week.  Luckily, the upper switch still works and limited the amount of water that got dumped into the sump.

Is there any place locally that sells the switches?  I found some online frrom the states, but the shipping is 3x the coast of the part.

If any of our Sponsors carry this item, please feel free to PM me.

Thanks

Missed the local vendor part.  My mistake.

Are you just after the float switch itself?  Similar to this:

If so, I have a few spare ones, you can have one, I doubt I'll ever use them all.

HomerJ,

That's exactly what I'm looking for!  I'd glady take one off your hands. 

PM inbound.

Thanks,

Jerry
