Septic Tank Filter

Tank maintenance and septic filter & system installations should always be performed by licensed and insured professional.

Effluent filters stop the larger solids from getting out to the drainfield. They are cleaned out every few years when you have your tank pumped. Effluent filters are cheap insurance and along with a washing machine filter, one of the best things you can do to protect your system.

Discharge water from a washing machine is laced with lint, hair, shredded facial tissues, and other soggy debris. When it drains into a utility sink, the debris clogs the drainpipe and can destroy your septic tank leach field. Lint filters stop debris before it enters the drain by fastening it over the end of the washer discharge hose.
