Angling the float down slightly so the water level sits just below the float mount might work as well.

Use the (fat) 1/2" I.D. rubber grommet shown on Page 14 of the InnTainer Guide:

Make sure to purchase the float valves for your 5 gallon buckets with a 1/2" thread size to snugly fit within the grommet.
EDIT: Actually, there is no reason to have the mounting hole
below the water level in the reservoir, so I think just snugging the nut down on the float valve will be sufficient, and then adjusting the float bulb to shut off water intake before it rises to the mounting hole.
