SEPTIC TANK PUMPING
Are YOU looking for a septic tank pump out? WE CAN HELP YOU.
Many Australian homes have septic systems treating their liquid wastes. These systems collect wastewater from the sinks and drains in your bathroom, kitchen, and laundry, and treat it to provide an effluent of high enough quality to be filtered in surrounding soil. You might be aware that you have a septic tank installed on your property, but you might not know that it should be serviced at least every 4 years by trained professionals, to maintain the health of your system, and to make sure that you comply with the health and safety legislation governing them.
Septic tanks collect the combined wastewater from your home, and separate it so that the heaviest matter in the water sinks to the bottom of the tank and becomes sludge, and fats and oils float on the surface as a layer of scum.
Only the effluent in the middle of these layers is discharged into the drain field, so it is vital that your system is operating properly for these components to be properly separated. Poor maintenance or overdue emptying can prevent toilets and drains from emptying, and can cause extensive overflow and plumbing problems that pose a significant health and safety risk to you and other people.
Often, it is not until unpleasant odours arise from the tank or the drains inside your home, or plumbing blockages occur, that you know your septic system needs attending to. By this time, the solutions are usually complex and expensive, requiring substantial labour and even replacement parts. Fortunately, these problems can be avoided with proper maintenance: Signal Waste & Recycling can keep your system functioning well, by pumping out the sludge and scum layers regularly, thoroughly inspecting the system, and advising you on specific maintenance issues that need to be attended.
There are also different requirements for aerobic and anaerobic systems. Most septic systems are installed in older houses, and most aerobic systems are present in houses newer than 10 years old, but it isn’t essential for you to know the type and size of your system to have it properly attended.
