Default 40- 50 Times

My Top up water tank has to be manually filled with the RO/DI system that is about 9 meters away from it, so no leaks right from the tank. I must of over filled the water transfer bucket 40-50 times already though, Cork floors FTW!

Same here for the top up water. I overflow it at least a couple of times per month. At least I was smart enought to put it out in the garage where a flood can't cause any damage.

The key word here is "yet".

I broke a 45g in our old third floor apt. Overfilled my mix bucket with rodi many times in the last house. Once it dripped into the cat litter in the basement. That was so gross.

I dont hear you knocking on wood for me... HAH. The best part is just shortly after I typed that msg out my bucket of RO/DI water I was filling overflowed. Just a couple of drops.

So in answer to the topic... just once
