Septic Rejuvenation by Septic Preservation Services

/in Bob Silva, Massachusetts, Mattapoisett, norton, Septic Preservation Services, septic rejuvenation /by

Septic Preservation Services has an appointment to begin septic rejuvenation today for a client in Norton,MA. Septic Rejuvenation utilizes a patented technology to intermittently aerate the drainfield and surrounding soil. This method is used as an alternative to aerating the wastewater in the septic tank. It allows failed septic systems to rapidly rejuvenate, extending the lifespan of the drainfield and the septic system, while enhancing the treatment process.

Rejuvenation is currently being used by over 2,000 different septic service providers throughout the United States and Canada and has proven successful in a wide range of different climates and soil types. This technology has been applied in residential situations for both single and multi-family dwellings, as well as commercial situations, servicing hotels, laundromats, grocery stores, food processing facilities, healthcare services, marinas, restaurants, and more.

Some of the benefits associated with Septic Rejuvenation include:

rapid restoration of proper septic system functions

lower costs for installation, operation and maintenance
enhanced removal of pathogens, nitrogen, phosphorus and B.O.D.
minimal damage/disruption to existing property landscape
long term, cost-effective solution

This technology has been studied over an extended period of time. Rejuvenation has been proven effective, tested by leading universities, leaders in the septic industry and third-party organizations. The process is simple, yet revolutionary. It is similar to composting and has the ability to rejuvenate septic systems that are severely failed within just a few days.

Other products attempt to rejuvenate septic systems by aerating the wastewater, which is fundamentally limited due to the maximum amount of oxygen that can be added into water. Our rejuvenation technology puts air directly into the clogged biomat and drainfield soils, getting directly to the root of the system failure. This process is much faster than water aeration methods and the treatment is much more thorough as a result.

Septic Preservation Services has applied this rejuvenation technology to septic system projects that simply could not be rejuvenated using other types of pre-treatment devices, even systems that had been utilizing pre-treatment systems from installation. This process has been shown to increase the hydraulic capacity of the average septic system by as much as two to five times, boosting the efficiency of the affected system. As a result, in most cases as much as 25-75% of the drainfield can be taken out of service, allowed to rest and held in reserve for future use.

Regardless of your type of septic system, from chambers to stone and pipe, drip, and everything in between, our rejuvenation technology can help get your system get back on track and running efficiently. The effectiveness of this method has been proven and documented by respected institutions, including Delaware Valley College, Massachusetts Test Center and the University of Rhode Island.

Summer Gatherings and Your Septic System

/in Bob Silva, Maine, Massachusetts, Mattapoisett, norton, rhode island, Septic Preservation Services, septic pumping, septic services, septic system pumping /by

Summer is a great time of year for family gatherings, including cookouts, weddings, bbq’s, pool parties and even summer overnight guests.

When planning for summer gatherings this summer, prevention can go a long way toward averting disasters with your septic system. Parties, weddings, and any summer gathering can exert heavy use on your septic system. Careful planning can help you prepare your septic system for the extra guests and extra load.

Here are some tips:

Arrange for a septic tank pumping prior to the event. Heavy volume of wastewater over a short period of time can over saturate the drain field and cause a mess in your yard or backup in to your home. Performing septic tank maintenance right before the event will create added capacity which will be able to handle more volume.

Check your septic system and make sure it is functioning properly before the event. Septic Preservation Services have technicians available for a maintenance check. A problem may not be obvious during regular or modest use, but when you add an additional volume of wastewater over a short period of time, this can cause an already impaired system to fail.

The technician can also check your drain lines and make sure they are clear as well as the flow of water from your home to the tank. Partially clogged drain lines can fail with excessive effluent running through them in a short amount of time.

School your guests on what not to flush down the toilet. A nearby garbage can and properly placed signs on dos and don’ts may be all you need.

Better yet, for large gatherings with many guests, such as weddings, graduation parties or family reunions, consider renting portable toilets and sinks. This will take the load off your septic system and avoid costly and odorous disasters. Units today are more attractive and reasonable and can take the worry out of your day.

Proper preventative maintenance is all that is needed to keep a septic system functioning properly for many years to come. When the day is done, the cost of a little preventive maintenance is well worth the investment to avoid the potential for backups and septic system repairs or replacement.

Call Septic Preservation Services before your summer gathering. They have all the equipment and professionals available to maintain and check your septic system and get it ready for your big day. You can reach them at 877-378-4279 or visit www.septicpreservation.com for more information.

Pros and Cons of Cesspools

/in Bob Silva, cesspool, cesspool replacement, cesspool service, cesspool upgrades, Massachusetts, Mattapoisett, norton, septic design and installation, Septic Preservation Services /by

Septic Preservation Services has a septic installation starting today in North Attleboro, MA. We were contacted by a homeowner who has a cesspool and wants to replace their cesspool and upgrade to a septic system. People often have their cesspool upgraded because it is failing. However, it is often wise to consider replacing a cesspool because cesspools are considered substandard systems. They don’t treat wastewater, they merely dispose of it. Cesspools concentrate the wastewater in one location, often deep within the ground and in direct contact with groundwater, causing groundwater contamination. This groundwater flows into drinking water wells and surface waters contributing to adverse public health and environmental impacts. In contrast, conventional septic systems place the wastewater well above the level of soils saturated by groundwater and they disperse this effluent over a large area, which results in substantial removal of pathogens and other pollutants. Cesspools which serve only as “overflow” pits from septic tanks are much more efficient than the older systems because they receive much less solid material. However, where there is no septic tank to hold the solids, the cesspool will require much more maintenance. Over time, when the drainage area around the leaching pool becomes saturated, additional pools may have to be dug to handle the volume. Cesspools generally have larger maintenance costs also in addition to not treating waste as efficiently. We have extensive experience with septic system installation and have recently completed septic installations in Norton, Fairhaven, Franklin and Lakeville, MA.
