Burtons Auto Top-Up System
The Burtons Auto Top-Up system is designed to keep a constant water level in your pond.
When the water level of your pond drops below the low sensor, the unit opens the mains water solenoid, allowing water to flow in and top up the pond. Once the water reaches the high level sensor, the unit shuts the solenoid off again, stopping the water flow.
Keeping a constant water level is important, especially for systems with a gravity-fed drum filter. The unit comes standard with a 20mm water level differential, which can be easily adjusted if needed.

FAQ
Can the water level differential be adjusted?
Yes, the 20mm water level differential can be easily adjusted to suit your pond’s needs.
Does the unit work with all types of pond filters?
The unit is specifically designed for ponds with gravity-fed drum filters. Compatibility with other filter types is not guaranteed.
How does the system detect low and high water levels?
The system uses low and high level sensors to detect water levels. When the water drops below the low sensor, the solenoid opens to allow water in. When it reaches the high sensor, the solenoid shuts off.

The auto top-up system works reliably and keeps my pond at a steady level. I didn’t have to manually refill it during dry spells. The 20mm differential is perfect for my pond size and easy to adjust if needed.

It’s a simple but effective solution for maintaining water levels. I noticed it activates only when needed and doesn’t overfill. Works well with my gravity-fed filter system.

Installed it last month and it’s been running smoothly. No leaks, no overflows. The sensors respond quickly and the water level stays consistent even during hot weather.
