I have had the pleasure of going thru three of the HF units. The worked well for 6 months to maybe a year before they stopped working. The valve would corrode to the point where it would not open and drain the tank. I was so happy with the constant need to replace them that I finally bought a non-HF electrical version with a timer.
I have successfully managed [excellent pharmacuiticals] to live with the depression [i.e. lack of pleasure] that comes with not having to mess with the damn thing for the last 5 years.
But you may have better luck with them than I did.
