I bought a one year-old home in VA about 3 years ago. Due to county regs it needed an alternative septic. The Advantex system was used. The system seems to work quite well however, every spring during the rainy season the alarm will sound every couple of days. I cycle the power the system and clear the alarm. This goes on for a couple of weeks and then stops until the next spring. I assume there is ground water getting into the system causing a float to trigger the alarm but I'm not sure. I see from some research that i should be able to see some sort of monitoring of my system through a web interface and it looks as though an outside service is supposed to be monitoring it as well. No one ever mentioned any of that to me when the house was purchased and i have no paperwork on the system. I was told it should be inspected every few years and that is all i need to worry about. Anyone have any more info or a place where i can find more info? Thanks.
