Plumbing of waste water commonly involves a pump box. The job of a pump box is similar to a septic tank, but it is smaller and has a pump, or grinder installed inside of it. For a home or commercial property, a pump box is typically used for retro-fit purposes, or when a pump box is required before installing a septic tank. Pump boxes can be installed with an aluminum hatch, if required. Waste water drains from plumbing systems into a pump box for treatment.

Pump Junction Box Installed in Plastic Riser
An easy way to install a pump into your septic tank is thorough a pump junction box installed in a plastic riser which sits on top of the pump box. Your electrician simply wires power to the box and plugs it in. If the pump or floats fail, just unplug it, replace the faulty part, and plug it back in. Installing a pump junction box in a plastic riser will save you time and money when a pump inevitably fails. Duplex systems are also available.

My father started the Andrew J. Foss, Inc. precast concrete company in 1963 at the age of 19. My precast education started at a very young age. He taught me everything I know about creating quality precast concrete products, from septic tanks to concrete headwalls. He also taught me to succeed in business you need to offer an exceptional product and treat your customers as you would expect to be treated. Now, as an owner of the company along with my brother Matthew, we've taken everything we've learned from our father to start the next generation of our family-owned precast concrete company.
