Septic Tank Cleaning is a safe and effective way to treat wastewater from the laundry, kitchens, and bathrooms in homes without access to public sewer systems. Wastewater contains pollutants and germs that need to be safely disposed of to safeguard human health and the environment. The septic system removes harmful coliform bacteria and other contaminants from wastewater, which it then percolates into the soil, where the earth naturally treats and filters the sewage and water.

Your septic system begins with a septic tank, which is a large, watertight container typically made of concrete or fiberglass. As wastewater enters the septic tank, it separates into heavy solids that sink to the bottom as sludge and lighter oil and grease that floats to the top as scum. The cleaner wastewater, called effluent, exits the septic tank and flows into the drain field (a shallow, covered excavation in unsaturated soil).

Common Septic Tank Problems and How to Fix Them

Commercial businesses and government facilities depend on their septic systems to handle the wastewater of many employees, customers, and citizens. When these systems become clogged, damaged, or fail, the business and its operations suffer. Atlantic Sitton Services helps these enterprises avoid septic emergencies with preventative maintenance plans that catch repairs early, clean and pump the septic system on a regular basis, and ensure the system is operating at peak performance.

All the water that your household sends down the pipes ends up in your septic system, so it is important to conserve water to help reduce the amount of wastewater that goes into the tank. In addition, you should have your septic tank pumped periodically to remove the excess sludge and scum that builds up in the tank.
