FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

  • How do I know if my septic system needs pumping?

    Signs that a septic tank needs pumping include slow-draining fixtures, bad odours, unusually green grass over the drain field, gurgling pipes and water pooling near the disposal area. A tank may also need pumping sooner if the household has increased its water use. Most tanks should be pumped every 3–5 years, but homes with higher demand may require more frequent servicing.

  • Why does my wastewater system alarm keep going off?

    A system alarm usually indicates a problem with the aerator, pump, high water levels or electrical components. Alarms are designed to warn you early before a full failure occurs. Common causes include blocked filters, failing pumps, loss of power, excessive sludge, heavy rain infiltration or damaged components. A professional inspection can quickly identify the reason and prevent further issues.

  • What maintenance does a wastewater treatment system require?

    Most systems need servicing every 3–6 months to check aerators, pumps, alarms, sludge levels and general system performance. Treatment systems rely on mechanical and biological processes, so regular checks ensure each stage is functioning correctly. Missing a scheduled service can lead to odours, poor water quality, overflow or system failure. Local councils often require proof of maintenance, making routine servicing essential for compliance.
