Hi,
Every time we have heavy rain for a prolonged period (last 24 hours) my waste treatment system seems to fill with water. It was installed 3 years ago and this has always happened. It has caused damage before with switches etc having to be replaced.
There are 2 chambers and both fill up until almost full. We then get a high water alarm or I manually overide the system to pump the clear water out. For example no clear water was pumped all week but yesterday I manually switched it to pump out at 6am and 8pm. I pumped it out at 6am this morning and when I came home today I had to pump it out twice. When you set it to manually pump it goes for 15 mins so it's a lot ot water. If its not raining it is days between pumping and I never have to touch anything.
Water must be getting in somewhere during the heavy rain but where and why would both chambers fill up?
Any ideas??????
Thanks,
Nicky
