Suggestions or ideas for a home made float valve?
We manually set the flow/drip from our flue pan into our front pan with a ball valve. The flue pan is about 4" above the front pan with a drain opening.
Has anyone rigged a float valve (or has a suggestion) which could connect to our output of the flue pan (ball valve full open) and sit inside the front pan?
I've seen the commercial ones that attach via the sides of the pans, but we have no holes on the sides of our pans. I am not ready to learn how to fabricate with stainless right now and wonder if there is an easy way to add a float.
