/in Bob Silva, Massachusetts, norton, septic inspection, septic inspections, Septic Preservation Services, title 5, title 5 inspections, title v /by

Septic Preservation Services have licensed septic inspectors who are available to carry out Title 5 Septic Inspections for property owners who require an inspection. Often we are contacted by property owners who have a septic system and are planning to sell their home and need to have a Title 5 Inspection completed before they can transfer Title. Once a septic inspection has been done it is valid for 2 years so there is no reason not to have it done as soon as you decide to sell your property. This will prevent any hold ups later in your sale and once it is done it is a positive point for your property. Often property owners have never before had an inspection done so this information from the Official Website of the Executive Office of Energy and Environmental Affairs helps explain what to expect:

“An inspection shall consist of the collection and recording of the following information:

(a)   a general description of the system components and layout;
(b)   quantification of the source/type of sanitary sewage. This should include type of use (domestic or commercial/industrial) as well as the design flow and whether or not the facility being served is occupied at the time of the inspection;
(c)   an analysis of the factors set forth in 310 CMR 15.303 (failure criteria) and, if the system has a design flow of 10,000 gpd or greater, 15.304 (threats to public health and environment);
(d)   water use records for the previous two years for facilities served by public water supply, if available from the supplier;
(e)   a description of the septic tank including:
1.   approximate age, size, and condition of the tank;
2.   distance between bottom of grease/scum layer and the bottom of the outlet baffle;
3.   distance between the top of the scum layer and the top of the outlet tee;
4.   thickness of the grease/scum layer;
5.   depth of the sludge layer and distance from sludge to outlet tee;
6.   physical condition of inlet and outlet tees;
7.   any evidence of leakage into or out of tank; and
8.   any evidence of backup of effluent.
9.   a characterization of the distribution box, and of dosing tanks with pumps, if any, including: a.   any evidence of solids carryover; b.   leakage into or out of the distribution box; c.   whether the flow is equally divided; and d.   any evidence of backup.
10.   a description of the condition of the soil absorption system including: a.   any signs of hydraulic failure; b.   condition of surface vegetation; c.   level of ponding within disposal area; d.   encroachments into disposal area; and e.   other sources of hydraulic loading.

septic services Septic Preservation Services provides septic system services to our clients who have chosen to take away the any uncertainly of septic system ownership. We will maintain and service your septic system on a regular basis to ensure that it keeps operating correctly and to reduce the likelihood of any expected repairs or failures.

The regularity of services depends on a variety of factors, including the septic system and the usage it receives. A small cottage on the cape that gets used in summer months will not need to be serviced as often as a busy restaurant.

We usually schedule services either on a quarterly, biannual, or annual basis. Today, we have septic services in Sutton, Upton, Grafton, Bellingham, Millis, and Franklin, MA.

Schedule Your Septic Tank Pumping with SPS

/in Bob Silva, Massachusetts, Mattapoisett, norton, Septic Preservation Services, septic pumping, septic system cleaning and pumping /by

septic tank pumping Septic Preservation Services can help you ensure that your septic system continues to operate correctly by pumping your septic tank. Septic pumping is essential every 3 – 5 years to ensure that your tank does not overflow. As you can imagine it is not advisable to leave pumping too late late because the results can be unpleasant and expensive to fix.

The regularity that your tank needs to be pumped will vary slightly from various factors including water usage and the size of your tank. For example, a family with 5 members, including teenagers, will typically use more water and therefore need more their tank pumped sooner, than a home of a retired couple. However, this too can vary dramatically if that couple have extended family visiting for a prolonged period.

Essentially if you are unsure, please do call our office where we will be happy to answer any questions. Today, we are pumping septic systems for customers in Holliston, Millis, Bellingham, Franklin, Wrentham, and Foxboro, MA. If you need to schedule a septic pump out appointment or if you have any questions, please do contact our Norton, MA office at 877-378-4279 or visit www.septicpreservation.com

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. If you have questions about septic system installations or cesspool replacement please do contact our office at 877-378-4279 or visit www.septicpreservation.com
