Newbie with question about filling the water tank

thanks, everyone...we'll try filling slower first and see what happens

I could never get a good fill with a hose that had the threaded end attached. Water always backed up. The cure was 2-3 ft 1/2"hose extension with the threaded end cut off. They sell one for this purpose, but the hose is too short. Also you run the risk of the end falling off, adding to your woes! I use a cut off washing machine fill hose. Add one of those plastic hose shutoff valves for convenience.
