Prep Your Field for Spring in Less Than 10 Minutes
Adjust Those Gutters
With extra spring rainfall you will want to make sure that your downspouts are not directing water towards your septic field this spring. The field is already managing snow melt, don’t make it work overtime. Take a walk around your home and do a quick check to make sure everything is directed away from your field.
No Field Pooling Allowed
Snow melting, rain falling, water everywhere! But is it pooling on your septic field? That is a big no-no so go and double check right now. Flooding of your fields can lead to permanent damage. If you have excess water sitting on your field call a pro to help you get this cleared up.
Clean Filters are the Best Filters
The filter is like a screen keeping mosquitoes out of your bedroom at night. ESSENTIAL! A long winter and spring melt can leave your filter scummy and clogged and that will make the whole system under-perform. Do a quick check on the filter today.
Save Some Water this Spring
A little less water down the drain is a little less in the tank while your system adjusts to all the water bombarding it in the spring. Shorter showers, hand-wash dishes and turning the tap off while you brush your pearly whites can all help your system cope.
Call the Pumper Truck
We know, it is hard to access your system in winter and a full tank during Spring melt can make things more difficult for the whole structure to function at its best. It is a relatively inexpensive way to give your system the upper-hand in the spring. Get your tank emptied and rest easy knowing you will not over-fill.
