Pump system
The only difference between a Standard or Deep Trench system and a
Pump system is that gravity flow from the septic tank and leach field
could not be obtained. In this case, a separate pump tank, sewage
effluent pump, high water level alarm is installed to pump the effluent
to leach trenches.
Maintenance Requirements:
Septic tank maintenance should include pumping the septic and
cleaning the effluent filter every three to five years. Because the
septic tank maintenance is critical to the over-all performance of the
sewage disposal system, failure to perform this maintenance can lead to
sedimentation and premature failure of the leach lines.
The primary and 100% repair area must be protected from vehicular
traffic, corrals, animal enclosures, stables, structures, below or above
ground pools, or any other activity that causes alterations such as
grading, cuts/fills, ect. Failure to do so may void any warranties.
Please note that all roof drainage should be diverted away from the
leach field. Irrigation in the area of the leach trenches should be kept
to a minimum to avoid saturating the soil. Drip irrigation should be
used.
Also we recommend water conservation should be enlisted for household
water use to maximize the life expectancy of the absorption trenches.
Also take care of any household leaks immediately to avoid unnecessary
saturating of the leach trenches.
