Maintenance
-
Essential to the proper performance of any on site
treatment system is regular scheduled maintenance. Every 6 months
(more often in highly sensitive environments), for the lifetime of
the system, MPC recommends maintenance be done by a qualified
professional, certified by MPC. Aerobic Wastewater Treatment
Systems have mechanical components that
sustain the biological environment where wastewater treatment takes
place. Having a qualified professional look after your system is the
only way to ensure that everything is working properly.
Reducing Problems
You can reduce problems with your Aerobic System
and extend the system life by performing basic maintenance:
-
Disinfection of septic effluent:
use the proper disinfection tablets and use them on the recommended
schedule.
-
Proper Tablets: use only the proper type of disinfection tablets.
-
Aerobic Unit Pumps: inspect the aerobic aeration pump monthly when you’re checking the
disinfectant tablets. If the pump motor is making a strange noise (or
worse, has stopped working) you need repair service promptly.
-
Protect from Vehicle Damage: do
not drive over the system nor any of its components – you may
damage or destroy the system. Keep grass mowed to avoid blocking or
jamming components or interfering with evaporation from the
absorption system.
-
Aerobic System Maintenance
Contracts: use and maintain a maintenance service contract with
a certified technician. This is the absolute best way to ensure your
systems long term health and that damaging pollutants aren't
contaminating the area around the system.
