Septic or Sewer System Preparation before Thunderstorm Season


Thunderstorm season will soon begin from June 1 until November 30. Is your wastewater structure ready for the devastating disaster? Heavy rains will cause flooding, especially in low lying areas and may result major problems in your sewer system, and the city sewer facility.

Storm drains and septic tanks manages huge amount of water, rainfall and the excess water. A septic system which is well-maintained and built with standard materials can withstand traumas cause by heavy rains and flooding. An inspection is necessary and should be done on a regular basis to ensure your septic system functions appropriately.

The following visible symptoms your septic system malfunctions:
·         The sinks, toilet or bathtub drain slowly.
·         There is a foul odor coming out your pipes, sinks, shower and toilets.
·         Sewage spills are starting to be noticed near the location where your wastewater facility is installed.
·         Water pooling in the area close in your drainfield.

The flooded ground may result in the slowing/stop of the absorption process of the septic system. There is a possibility that your septic tank may float and move from its original position and in the worst case may collapse.

What will happen when the rain water increased and totally used up the sewer central facility or your system? The sewage and wastewater will flow back to house sewer lines. It will enter your home and will reach first the lower areas that may damage your floors, walls, appliances, furniture and other valuables. So you must place your belongings like furniture, appliances, and movable cabinets in high areas in your house. Also, you must limit flushing toilets and running water in the faucets.

Always be ready when there is storm warning, stay informed and be updated with contact numbers of government agencies and organizations in case of emergency.
