Effluent Filters

A majority of drain fields fail prematurely due to an excessive amount of solids escaping the septic tank. Even septic tanks that are pumped regularly will discharge small amounts of lint, soap, grease and other forms of suspended solids. As solids accumulate in the leach field, the soil beneath the leach field will clog resulting in failure.
By installing an effluent filter in the outlet baffle of the septic tank, a majority of those suspended solids get screened out and remain in the septic tank where they belong. Effluent filters are very affordable and provide significant protection against drain field failure.
Effluent Filters are designed to extend the life of your septic system by preventing solids from leaving the septic tank. These filters should be inspected and cleaned once a year.
Having an effluent filter often will alert the homeowner of a problem in the septic system before it becomes a serious issue. If filters are not cleaned regularly they will cause drains to work in an unsatisfactory manner.

Septic Tank Risers

Septic tanks are typically buried 1 foot below the ground and require hand digging to make them accessible. When your tank is buried more than 16″ below ground level, we recommend having a riser installed.
Risers make servicing your septic tank much easier by eliminating the need to dig up your lawn when your tank is serviced, which saves you time and money. They also make troubleshooting your system much easier if problems arise.
Installing septic tank risers is a highly recommended addition to your septic system. The septic tank riser will make maintaining and monitoring your septic system much easier and more convenient.
