FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

  • What’s the difference between a septic tank and a treatment system?

    A septic tank is a simpler system where solids settle in the tank and liquid effluent disperses into an absorption area. This relies heavily on the soil to filter waste. A wastewater treatment system uses mechanical and biological processes — such as aeration — to break down waste more thoroughly. This results in cleaner, more usable effluent that can often be used for garden irrigation, depending on regulations. Treatment systems require more frequent servicing but offer higher efficiency and more consistent performance.

  • How often should my wastewater or septic system be serviced?

    Most treatment systems must be serviced every 3–6 months to ensure pumps, aerators, filters and alarms are functioning correctly. Septic tanks usually need pumping every 3–5 years. Regular servicing prevents odours, backups, overflowing trenches and system failures. It also ensures the setup remains compliant with council requirements, which is especially important in regional areas.

  • What system is best for properties in Cootamundra?

    The right system depends on household size, soil quality, water usage, block layout and council requirements. Some homes may manage well with a traditional septic tank, while others need an aerated treatment system that processes wastewater to a higher standard. Properties with challenging soil or limited space may require pump stations or advanced treatment units. A site assessment helps determine the safest and most efficient option.
