Frequently Asked Questions

See some common questions and answers below, or call us at (800) 804-4725. 

  • Where is the Blackwater Alert installed?

    Blackwater Alert is installed into a waste line cleanout typically found in the basement. Learn more about installation.

  • What kind of batteries does the Blackwater Alert take and how often should they be replaced?

    The unit runs on a 9-volt battery and should last for up to one year. When the battery is low you will hear a chirping noise similar to a smoke alarm, notifying you the battery needs to be replaced.

  • Do I need a plumber to install my Blackwater Alert?

    We recommend that a plumber install your Blackwater Alert to be sure the fitting is correct, tight and properly sealed.

  • Does the Blackwater Alert system stop the backup from entering my home?

    Blackwater Alert will not stop a backup, but it will sound a 95-decibal alarm to inform you that a backup is occurring so that you can act quickly to avoid damage to your property. Think of it as a fire alarm. It is a preventative safety measure to keep homeowners aware of issues with their sewer or septic system.

  • How many Blackwater Alerts should I have for a single-family home?

    One Blackwater Alert is sufficient for a single-family home.

  • What if my Blackwater Alert is set off by a septic backup when I am away from home?

    The Blackwater Alert is compatible with smart devices (Blink®, Simply Safe®, Alexa, etc.) and the 95-decibal alarm can trigger an alert to your mobile device with proper set up.

  • How will I know the Blackwater Alert is functioning?

    Blackwater Alert has a red flashing button on the face of the device. When flashing red, you know the device is active and operating correctly.

  • Is Blackwater Alert wireless?

    Yes! The unit is wireless.

  • Can I install Blackwater Alert myself?

    We recommend a plumber install your Blackwater Alert to ensure proper fitting that is tight and sealed.  If you have experience with this type of plumbing and believe you can ensure the fitting is done correctly, you can do it yourself.

  • Will I have to replace my Blackwater Alert in the future?

    No, this is the only Blackwater Alert you will need.
