We can tell you about your septic to sewer options.
Every property requires an effective waste management system. For some, that’s a sewer system, and for others, especially those in more rural areas, a septic system is what treats their waste. There are advantages and disadvantages to each, with one of the main disadvantages of septic systems being that they contribute excess nitrogen to groundwater.
To reduce pollution and protect Florida’s groundwater, rivers, estuaries, and other bodies of water, the state has mandated that some specific properties convert from septic systems to a sewer system. This requirement should significantly minimize nitrogen pollution and improve water quality. It also reduces the risk of individual septic system failures, which can be more difficult to address than sewer issues.
At Southern Water and Soil, we are familiar with septic to sewer conversions and can talk you through all the septic to sewer options available to you. For instance, one option may be a Distributed Wastewater Treatment Unit (DWTU). DWTUs are decentralized wastewater treatment solutions that are designed to fit a community’s needs and strategically placed where centralized sewer systems are too expensive or unfeasible. It’s just one of several septic to sewer options that may be possible, but we will take the time to assess your needs, present your options clearly, and execute the appropriate solution through our expert design and engineering services.
