Monitoring and Maintenance: Suspended Solids

In Kitsap County all septic systems, other than residential gravity, are required to have a  Monitoring and Maintenance contract. Monitoring and maintenance is important because it provides your system with regular inspections and adjustments that enhance your system and optimizes the life span. When regular monitoring and maintenance isn't done, problems can begin to arise with your system, as the video above shows. Flushing the drain field is an important part of maintenance, as it clears suspended solids from the drain field lines, keeping your system healthy for a longer life span.
