When you choose an aerobic waste treatment system for your Liberty City, Texas-area home, you are essentially putting a miniature version of a municipal sewage treatment facility in your yard that uses bacteria to consume your family's waste. The reasons for choosing an aerobic system can include providing a higher level of treatment for wastewater and reducing the size of the drainfield. But, no matter what the reason is that you chose one of these high-functioning systems, you can still develop aerobic septic problems Liberty City TX. Many of the problems you encounter will be a direct result of what you put down the drain in your home. What should stay out of the system?
Strong household cleaners. Do not put excess amounts of strong disinfectants, bleach or toilet cleaners down the drain. Use only the minimum amount that you need for cleaning. Also, do not put liquid fabric softener or pet shampoo in the system.
Bacteria-killing chemicals. Do not put bacteria-killing agents like paint thinners, varnishes, gasoline, antifreeze or pesticides into your system (this includes commercial and industrial waste). Among the bacteria killers are antibacterial soaps and some medications, especially antibiotics, that you may take. These can greatly upset the system and cause aerobic septic problems Liberty City TX.
Excess water. Do not allow any discharge or backwash from a water softener to enter the system. Do not allow excess volumes of surface water to pond around the system including rainwater and water from improperly-maintained plumbing. Any excess water, especially non-sewage, can overload the system.
Some food preparation byproducts. Never put cooking grease or oils into your system. Do not put coffee grounds or shrimp shells down the drain or put paper products used for cleaning up cooking messes like paper towels and napkins into the toilet.
Solid non-human waste. Never put disposable diapers, tampons, sanitary napkins, cigarette butts, dental floss, kitty litter or any rubber or plastic items into the system. Most manufacturers of aerobic waste treatment systems strongly discourage the use of garbage disposals because food processed through garbage disposals is still too large for the system to handle. However, a grease/trash trap can be installed in some systems to catch garbage disposal waste before it gets into the system.
Aerobic waste treatment systems are an excellent waste disposal system choice for many people but because there are so many dos and don'ts in using these systems, it's easy to make a mistake that can cause aerobic septic problems Liberty City TX.
