"We installed Rivio sensors on all 12 of our rental properties. Within the first month, we caught two tanks that were nearing capacity—both would have been expensive emergency calls. The sensors paid for themselves immediately."

Frequently Asked Questions
Everything you need to know about Rivio septic tank monitoring
The Rivio Sensor mounts on top of the tank (usually on the access port) and sends readings via cellular connection to our cloud platform. It measures fill levels in your septic tank and excels in challenging conditions like foam, condensation, or extreme temperatures. You can check levels anytime through our mobile app or web dashboard.
No! Rivio Sensors use built-in cellular connectivity (similar to a cell phone), so they work anywhere with cellular coverage—even in remote areas without WiFi or internet. This makes them perfect for cabins, rural homes, and off-grid properties.
Rivio Sensors are designed for long-term, maintenance-free operation. The lithium-ion battery typically lasts 5+ years under normal usage patterns. When it's time for a replacement, we'll notify you through the app.
We recommend having your septic service provider or pumper install the Rivio Sensor during their next service visit. They have the tools and expertise to mount it securely on your tank's access port. This ensures proper installation and they're already familiar with your system.
Rivio sensors work with virtually all septic and holding tank types—concrete, plastic, fiberglass, and steel. They're compatible with traditional septic systems, aerobic treatment units, holding tanks, and even grease traps.
Rivio Sensors provide accurate readings within ±2% of actual tank capacity. This precision ensures you receive timely alerts and can make informed decisions about when to schedule pump-outs.
No problem! You can monitor multiple tanks from a single Rivio account. Many customers monitor their main septic tank along with auxiliary tanks, grey water tanks, or holding tanks at different properties.
