Installing a Septic Alarm to Save You Thousands in Sewer Backup Costs

Nearly all household sewer backups can be prevented with the installation of a septic tank alarm. These alarms are activated when there's a risk of sewage backup or overflow, providing an early warning to homeowners. The alarm signals when the water level in your septic system is too high, allowing you to address the issue before it escalates.

A septic alarm is your first line of defense when something goes wrong with your system. At ONE Septic, we professionally install septic tank alarms, teach you how to operate them, and explain the steps to take when the alarm is triggered, helping you avoid costly repairs and damage.

Call Us For Year-Round Septic System Services

Your septic system works all year round and can cause issues at any time of the day. Some septic system problems can have substantial costs and pose serious health and safety risks. When you’re experiencing a problem with your septic system or septic tank, our technicians are available 24/7 for immediate response and service.

How to Protect Your Septic System Year-Round

A typical septic system can last between 15 and 40 years, but its longevity depends largely on how well it is maintained. Regular inspections, maintenance, and repairs are essential to keeping your septic system running at its best throughout its lifespan.

Keep your septic system in top shape by:

  • Scheduling regular inspections and servicing – Your septic system should be inspected annually to assess its overall condition. At ONE Septic Services, our experts perform on-site evaluations to identify potential problems, helping you avoid costly replacements and extend the life of your system.

  • Avoiding the flushing of non-biodegradable items – Items like diapers, sanitary products, wipes (even those labeled “flushable”), condoms, cigarette butts, harsh chemicals, and paper towels should never be flushed or drained. Anything that doesn’t naturally break down can damage your septic system. It’s important to inform your guests about what should and shouldn’t go down your drains.

  • Preventing freezing in winter – When wastewater slows down in your drain field, it can freeze during winter, leading to blockages that can cause backups in your septic tank. Once a drain field starts freezing in winter, it tends to get worse over time. Proactive measures can help prevent this from becoming a recurring issue.

  • Addressing even minor issues promptly – Don’t ignore small issues with your septic system. What seems minor can often indicate a larger problem. Early detection and repair can save you from expensive and stressful repairs down the line.

In Michigan, the changing seasons can present challenges, such as freezing in winter and flooding in spring. No matter the time of year, it's always a good idea to schedule septic system services to reduce the risk of emergencies and ensure your system remains in good working order.

Why You Should Only Trust Your Septic System to a Professional

The technicians at ONE Septic Services are fully trained to handle everything from regular maintenance and septic tank pumping to repairs and replacements, ensuring your system stays in top condition year-round.

  • Compliance with Michigan regulations – Septic systems in Michigan are regulated by state and local health departments. Our technicians are familiar with these regulations and ensure your system remains compliant, helping you avoid potential fines and legal issues. Trusting a professional means peace of mind knowing your system meets all safety standards.

  • Health and safety – Septic systems contain hazardous materials like bacteria, microorganisms, and sewage that must be handled with care. Our professionals have the necessary training and equipment to safely manage these risks, protecting both your health and the environment.

  • Protect the longevity of your system – Regular maintenance by certified technicians can extend the life of your septic system, preventing major failures and saving you money on costly repairs or replacements. Routine care keeps your system efficient and helps avoid the need for emergency services.

  • Increase your home’s value – A well-maintained septic system can boost your property value, especially if you’re planning to sell.
