I have a 5 gallon bucket under my skimmer which also catches the effluent. I built a float switch out of a GFI. When the water gets too high in the bucket, the GFI turns off the pumps to the skimmer. It has saved me from numerous floods.
I also built the same thing under my domestic water heater.
If there is a leak, the intake water shuts off with an electric valve.
