The best solution would be even better if you didn't have to monitor it and dump the bucket. I have seen them connected to drain into a reservoir with a pump and float that will empty automatically. Amazon has one:

I have a friend who hooked up a boat bilge pump in a bucket with a 12 volt battery on a trickle charger to accomplish the same thing.
You only need to run the drain hose outside or into a sink and then you can forget about it. You won't need to empty the bucket again.
