Septic Systems

For homeowner’s maintaining their own septic system, please be aware of the following tips!

Maintenance

  • Homeowner’s are responsible to periodically inspect your septic system, and to periodically have it pumped clean.
  • Maintenance costs are far lower than replacement costs.
  • Lack of maintenance could lead to contaminated drinking water.

Protect your System

  1. Regularly inspect your system and pump as necessary.
  2. Use water efficiently.
  3. Don’t dispose of Household Hazardous Wastes in your sinks or toilets.
  4. Care for your drainfield by not parking above it, and planning only grass on top of it.

How Septic Systems Work

  • Pipes bring in waste from your home to a watertight tank.
  • Sludge settles to the bottom, while water is pumped to the drainfield.
  • Water going out the drainfield is filtered by microorganisms in the soil.
  • Regular cleanings are required to remove the sludge from the tank.
