About 2-3 years ago the line clogged and I didn’t catch it for a while and we had some serious water damage. It just clogged again and I caught it pretty quick but it could have been bad.

Shop vac solves the immediate problem but I’d like a more permanent solution. Any ideas?

    Not exactly a “fix”, but a water alarm can ensure an overflow doesn’t go unnoticed… but then you’ve got a battery to remember.

    That said, the ones I have under my sink and near my water heater have been running on the original 9v battery for over 8 years now

      I actually have one but it’s sitting in the water heater pan 1 foot away… I’ll get a second one right now.
