I see the auto fill thingies, or used to, all the time. almost everyone is tied up, jammed shut or disabled. they hang up and the water keeps filling.. and filling. a couple days running and your water bill is $$$$ more than usual. something to think about! leave your garden hose running in the pool over night by accident like I've done a couple times and your yard, the neighbor's yard... flooded. in my case, it's during an install and the pool floats up or sinks down and there's a day or two extra work digging out, jacking it up and releveling. I've learned (except for yesterday) not only to turn off the hose, but pull it out of the pool just to be sure. not fun driving up the next day and the pool is 5 inches lower on one side than it was yesterday when I started adding water
