oh geez, sorry to hear this! Hope everyone else makes it through.

Did you find out what caused the sump overflow? Or did I miss that in your post?

yeah what caused it was my auto top off had it directly from the ro uint to a solenoid to a fish bowl auto top off one with level control float and a high water level float and for some reason they both failed i regularly checked them as i was Leary about it but took it out and tested it on the floor for like a hour and worked every time well after the canister blew up on the ro unit on friday last week i had a dream about the float switches failing and well it happened so picked up a new tunze and a 5 gallon pail for top ups

It was no big deal i was poking back at you. There is a reason i am a mechanic and not a english teacher. Never really was fond of writing.

Sorry to hear. I hope everything will be ok. This is why i always make sure my ato water just enough to fill the sum full and not overflow the sum though i have to refil itl every 3 days. I have seen some of my friends hook up their RO/DI unit directly to the ATO and got flooded floor and dying livestock because of failing float switches.

Switches are cheap to buy but costly when they failed
