Reasons to Consider Riser Installation for Your Septic Tank

When a septic system is installed, the access point for the septic tank can be several inches below the surface. This means that every time your septic tank needs to be serviced, the septic company will need to dig up your yard to gain access. You can avoid this hassle with riser installation, which involves installing a pipe that allows access from ground level. There are several reasons to consider riser installation:

• No digging- Septic companies are pretty good at locating your septic tank without digging multiple holes to find it, but they do need to dig, nevertheless. You can avoid this with riser installation.
• Reminder of location- It is easy to forget where your septic tank is located, but with riser installation, you’ll see where it is so you can avoid planting the wrong type of landscaping over it or mistakenly driving over it with heavy equipment. It’ll also help remind you not to put a structure there, such as a patio.
• Save time and money- When you need septic services, the fee you’ll pay is based on how long the service takes, in most cases. With riser installation, pumping and other maintenance for your tank will take less time, and that could be reflected with a smaller bill.
• Make your property more appealing to home buyers- When you sell your home, you’ll find that buyers are less apprehensive about buying a home with a septic system if they know how easy it will be to have it serviced.
