What To Do In This Situation

This article explains the importance of fixing a broken septic system. Now I know no one likes talking about a septic system I mean it’s poop, that’s what it comes down to. However when that poop is all over your yard you might change your mind. I bet that’s why you are reading this right now isn’t it!? I figured just as much. First you want to know if you can fix it yourself. Then if not how much it’s going to cost.

Aerobic Septic System

Once your conventional system fails, most home owners are recommended by professionals to install an aerobic septic system. These systems have a 98% clean out of the tank when applied with their irrigation system. You are really hitting two birds with one stone, a fertilized lawn and getting rid of your poo.

An aerobic system is not cheap, but it will last between 40-60 years. It may even longer if you keep up on annual maintenance and treat her nice. No chemicals or any foreign objects. There is oxygen loving natural bacteria in your tank that feeds on thermal effluence and it cannot digest your child’s army figurines.

Do The Research

Before you can fix a broken septic system, it is important to shop around for a quality, cheap septic cleaning company. You need someone that knows their stuff, but you also don’t want to pay that much. Most homeowners don’t factor in the annual cost for a septic system or the debt they might incur if their system fails. Installing a new one yourself is almost always out of the question since it requires a lot of knowledge experience and is a huge hassle if installed incorrectly.
