These firms have been recommended by
satisfied lakeshore residents.
You are reminded that your tanks should be
cleaned every 3 – 5 years depending upon use. You certainly
don’t want the significant expense of replacing a septic bed
because the tank was full plugging the beds.
There are many
reported cases of tanks that needed emergency pumping
because the owner didn’t have the septic tank pumped
regularly and guests couldn’t flush.
It is recommended
that you give several days lead time, have the area dug to
the lid opening and be present. A mid-week day is best.
If someone in your
association can co-ordinate 2-3 neighbours getting their
septic tanks pumped at the same time, ASK for a discount. It
saves them time and some expense by doing several at the
same time.
We like
feed-back; preferably good but also bad, so please let us
know ~> contact us

Huron County Septic Inspection

Following participation in the program, homeowners will have
an increased awareness of the location and condition of
their system. For more information see the county's
Newsletter. For a few months in 2007 a grant of up to
