Our Monthly Safety Meeting Ensures That In Our Busiest Season Safety Is Not Compromised
Septic Preservation Services takes the safety of its employees and customers extremely seriously. Our May monthly safety meeting was designed to prepare our workforce for the coming busy season and to review common hazardous exposures, discuss safety controls and review dig-safe importance. We had employees attend the safety meeting in person and remotely from Massachusetts, Rhode Island, Connecticut and Maine. Traditionally we are always busier in the months from Spring – Fall with septic service contracts, septic repairs resulting from those services, work delayed due to weather, increased real estate movement and with the usual new customers and referrals. However this increased workload should not mean that safety is at all compromised and our monthly meetings are there to ensure that does not happen. The meeting specifically addressed topics including driving safety, infectious disease controls, ergonomics, preventing falls and confined space entry controls. We have an excellent reputation in New England and want to maintain that by ensuring that our staff receive the best possible training. If you have questions about septic systems or wish to make an appointment please do contact our Norton office on 877-378-4279 or visit https://www.septicpreservation.com

Garbage Disposals and Your Septic System
Garbage Disposals are used in many households, but are they safe to use with your septic system. Good Question!
While many companies that sell garbage disposals will tell you they are fine to use with a septic system, the truth is they really aren’t.
You really shouldn’t be using a garbage disposal with your septic system. The way that the septic system is set up involves a large tank filled with water and the waste from your home. The solid waste settles to the bottom where bacteria go to work breaking it down. Then, there is the water waste layer that has the excess liquid going out to the drain field. Finally, at the top, there is a layer of scum that has built up.
In order to keep your septic system running smoothly, there are many items that should not be flushed or sent down the drains. This includes, diapers, wipes, bleach, harsh chemicals and sanitary products to name a few. The same is true with your garbage disposal. All the fats, grease, and other waste from the disposal are being added to the septic tank which can can cause problems and clogs and prevent it from working correctly.
Basically, you are overloading the waste that is being put into your septic tank and the naturally occurring bacteria will not be able to keep up with breaking it down. If you use a garbage disposal, you should have your tank pumped every year, rather than the normal 3-5 year range. It can wreak havoc with your septic system.
A better idea? Compost. Composting your kitchen waste is much better for your system and environmentally friendly. You can buy a cheap plastic composter or even make your own. Depending on the size, you can add all your kitchen waste as well as leaves and grass and have a great fertilizer ready for your garden or landscaping.
It’s a win win situation for your yard as well as your septic system.
