Water level sensor keeps going up

My water level sensor keeps going to 110% after a day even if I calibrate it. When I first calibrate it shows 100 then next day it goes up to 110 so does my water level on the sump

Is this a single WL Sensor or the multi unit?
I'm actually having the opposite on my Multi I calibrate it and it goes down faster than the water is actually going down.
My single unit is perfect.
Make sure there are no leaks where air can get in, but that would make it go down not up.

Strange. I've never seen that before especially with the single WL Sensor.
The only thing that would be making the level go up is if water was getting in the pipe or the tubing somehow.

Let me see if I understand.
Water level in your sump is going up above the 100% and your water level module is reporting 110%?
Is it correct?

Unless I mis-understood him the sump is level or going down (as it should with evaporation) but the WL sensor is rising.

Sorry I totally mis-understood that.
Double check your code and make sure the that the top level is 100%
Mine is set to go on when the water lever goes below 28% and go off when it reaches 31%
Code: Select all
ReefAngel.WaterLevelATO(ATO_Pump,720,28,31);
