So, I see how great the Bell Siphon is and people have advanced the design to be very reliable.

But, it seems to do the same thing as a toilet tank plug which could be attached to a float for triggering. Is there a reason this would not work?

Is the Bell Siphon more reliable? Do you see any advantages to the toilet plug on a float?

I would think the bell siphon would be a much more compact installation and also more resistant to being "held open" by debris?

If the flapper doesn't seal, the bed probably won't fill (depending on your pump).
