If you have interest on the water timer, pls go to www.gardena.com , the product is orignially for automated irrigation system for garden.

The price of a "watering control system 4040" cost about €40, 24V irrigation valve cost €30 each. Thus whole system may cost €100 or S$230. As i am still in europe now, i only get the pricing in euro. If anyone found such product in Spore or msia, pls let me know.

For anti chlorine, i am thinking to dilute the anti-chroline in to a small water container and use another control valve to dose it.

For this system, an overflow line is require to ensure my living hall wounld get wet.

My another worry is the dirty water outlet may cause the outler valve fail to function properly after some. time.
