Septic and Lift Station Systems
Septic Systems: How They Work and Why Ongoing Maintenance Matters
Septic systems are self-contained, on-site wastewater treatment systems commonly used by residential, commercial, and industrial properties that are not connected to a municipal sewer. Wastewater flows from the building into a septic tank, where solids settle to the bottom, oils and grease rise to the top, and the remaining liquid effluent exits the tank into a drain field for further natural treatment through the soil.
Proper inspection and regular maintenance are critical to ensure the system functions efficiently, prevents backups and system failures, and protects surrounding soil and groundwater from contamination. Routine service also helps extend the life of the system, reduce costly repairs, and ensure compliance with local health and environmental regulations.
Lift Stations: Operation and the Importance of Regular Maintenance
Lift stations are critical components of wastewater and stormwater management systems, designed to pump sewage or stormwater from lower elevations to higher elevations when gravity flow is not possible. They typically consist of a wet well that collects incoming water, pumps that move the water to the next stage of the system, and control panels to manage pump operation and system performance. Lift stations are often used in municipal sewer systems, commercial properties, and large residential developments to ensure continuous, efficient flow of wastewater.
Regular inspection and maintenance of lift stations are essential to prevent mechanical failures, blockages, and system backups. Components such as pumps, motors, valves, and floats require routine testing, cleaning, and lubrication to operate efficiently. Neglecting maintenance can result in costly repairs, environmental contamination, regulatory violations, and service interruptions. By performing scheduled inspections, cleaning, and preventive maintenance, lift stations remain reliable, extend their service life, and ensure safe and uninterrupted wastewater management.
