Septic Products
Lids
What are they? A lid is a 15 inch concrete lid with lip to fit into the riser. They are critical for keeping critters and other materials out of your septic tank.
Risers
What are they? A riser is a black polyurethane culvert. We cut this to the perfect height to bring the lid of your tank to the ground level. It can be on the surface so you can see the lid. No more digging. Or it can be placed just 2-3 inches below the sod so the lid is not exposed.
Why do you want them? Risers simplify tank accessibility.
Filters
What are they? Septic tank filters prevent solids greater than 1/16 of an inch from entering your drain field and clogging it up. If your tank has a second compartment, the filter is located at the outlet. Its external to internal flow and gas-baffle end cap prevents solids from entering the drain field. You will need to clean this filter by hosing it off every 1-2 years.
Microbial Additives



What are they? A microbial additive is a biological product that boosts and replenishes the supply of valuable micro-organisms to allow the natural activity to continue. To maintain, you simply flush one self-dissolving pouch down the toilet monthly.
Why do you want them? A microbial additive reduces frequent pumping and extends the life of the drain field. It neutralizes detergents, bleach and other harmful chemicals. Most importantly it helps degrade paper, grease, and vegetable oil.
