    Having a problem with my sewage system for my house which was installed just over two years ago , the little box inside the house which seems to be some type of control panel is beeping every few days, a fairly loud alarm saying Max aerator, I've rang around a few guys who have never come back to me, anyone ever experience such a problem?

    I just turned off the alarm, red light on the unit now for 2 years.

    Can't see anything wrong, compressor working, aerator working, empty pump working as it should.

    Tank emptying and no backup at house.

    I keep an eye on mine and don't worry about alarms.

    Ok cool, any particular way to tell if an aerator is working?

    Need to follow pipe from outlet of compressor, in lies compressor is on a timer which is located in electrical box on the tank.
    I had to spend a bit of time on ours once when the electrical box on the tank flooded and the compressor got waterlogged. The company wanted €250 for a new compressor, but I stripped it, dried it out and it's still working years later.

    Im a maintenance engineer anyway so the tank isn't too complicated for me to figure out.
