SEPTIC MAINTENANCE
Septic System Maintenance
A typical 3 Bedroom 2 Bathroom home can generate over 85,000 gallons of wastewater a year! This amounts to roughly 250 to 300 gallons a day! Your septic tank is an ecosystem which acts like a living filter that separates bio hazardous waste and pretreats wastewater before it enters your drain-field for final purification.
This process takes 24-48 hours. Poorly maintained septic systems may become a health hazard for not only your household but your entire neighborhood. A failed septic system can cause ground and water pollution as well as property damage.
This is why septic systems are so heavily regulated! Maintain your septic system by ensuring it is pumped out every 3-5 years. Invest in a quality, annual septic treatment enzyme. Always use a state licensed and insured septic contractor.
