The 3 primary ways to prolong the life of a septic system are:
- Proper Use – Avoid flushing or rinsing things down the drain that can clog the unit or disposal field
- Maintain and Inspect the System – Schedule professional septic system pumping as needed (usually 3-5 years) and plan for annual inspection,
- Obtain Quality Septic Systems Parts – Ask your precast concrete manufacturer for quality replacement parts, such as distribution boxes, tank covers, pumps for septic systems, holding tanks, dosing tanks, etc.
About the Author: Jon Cardinal
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.
