Smart Solutions for Young’s On-Site Systems

Wastewater and septic systems in Young need to be designed and maintained with care, especially across rural and semi-rural areas where soil types, block sizes and household demands can vary widely. A well-functioning system can reduce odours, improve drainage, extend the lifespan of tanks and pumps and prevent costly issues such as groundwater contamination or system overflow. Modern treatment options, including aerated systems, pump stations, low-pressure sewer units, grease traps and rainwater storage, give property owners more control over how their wastewater is managed day to day.


Professional servicing ensures components like blowers, pumps, filters and alarms continue working as they should, and that tanks remain clear of excessive sludge build-up.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

  • What’s the difference between a septic tank and a wastewater 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 can I tell if my wastewater or septic system needs servicing?

    Common signs include slow drains, unpleasant smells, system alarms, greener patches of grass around the trench, pooling water in the yard, gurgling sounds in pipes or backups inside the home. Some issues are related to sludge build-up, failing pumps or air blowers, damaged pipes or blocked filters. Early servicing can prevent complete system failure and protect the property from contamination.

  • What type of system is best for properties in Young?

    The right system depends on block size, soil type, household size, water use, and council requirements. Some homes in Young benefit from traditional septic tanks, while others require aerated wastewater treatment systems that process water to a higher standard. Properties with poor soil or limited space may benefit from pump stations or modern treatment plants. A site-specific assessment is the best way to determine the most efficient and compliant system.
