Has anybody had water shoot out their siphon break
I installed a Neptune atk last night with a new trigger reservoir and woke up to water all over my kitchen nook. I figured out it was coming from the ato system and dried up the mess. Then I heard the ato turn on and water came out of the stand again so I know it's leaking when the system is on. I'm assuming the pump vibrates and opens up a bad seam in the reservoir but thought maybe water could be shooting out the tiny hole in the siphon break.

The siphon break should be Inside the tank with the little hole pointing DOWN - Above the waterline in the ato container. To avoid splashing in my sump I put a endcap with a small piece of pvc around it which the ato sprays against and drips back into the ato container.
