Drain Field Installation: Making Sure You’re Clean

“What is a drain field?”

“Why is it important?”

“Why do I care?”

These are a few questions we receive when going over the septic tank process with clients. Septic tanks are essential to every home and commercial building – they’re just one of the least glamourous aspects of a property.

What is a drain field?

A drain field is the final step in the septic waste elimination process. This system is a series of pipes in the ground where the treated liquid is released into the ground. During the drain field installation, we make sure that nothing clogs up the pipes so your tank runs smoothly.

Why is it important?

Without drain field installation, all that waste (treated or not) builds up instead of going into the ground to further nourish the earth. Waste has to go somewhere, and that’s where the drain field comes in.

Why do I care?

A drain field helps to remove your waste and nourish the soil. It also separates and treats harmful chemicals and breaks down any solids.

We guarantee that each drain field installation is a smooth and stress-free process. We want to make sure that you and your home are taken care of. Our technicians specialize in drain field installation and work hard to ensure the job is done quickly. Here’s a few tips to remember concerning your septic tank:

•  Never flush medications, harsh chemicals, or feminine napkins down the toilet – these chemicals can kill the bacteria inside the tank, which break down solids, causing clogging and backups.
•  If you see any wet spots in your yard above the tank/pipes, water backup in toilets, strong odors, or slowing of drainage or flushing, call us immediately!
