I use a stock tank filler from the local Farm Supply place. $12. I have it
tied directly into the sprinkler system mainline, so I needed a pressure
reducer valve.

For those of you using this setup on a large scale pond, be sure to put a
whole house filter in line to get rid of the chlorine before it goes in your
pond.

Look into pool supply places. They sell a "toilet fill" technology type
of
device that has a constant water supply to it. Pond gets low, the slide
valve drops and opens allowing water in. Water level goes up and the
slide
does as well, closing the valve. They are not too terribly expensive.

Does any one have a way to keep their water feature full with out doing
it
by hand? I was thinking there must be something out there that can be
tied
into a water supply that would open and shut off when a the water level
reaches a set level.
I would like to put something like that on my front yard water feature
that
is just a whisky barrel that pumps water up through a hand pump. But
need
to fill often here in Colorado unless I can find and install a device
like
I
am asking for help on.
You can see the set up at

Thank you for you help I know there must be some way to do this.
