💧🌿 PROTECT YOUR ATU SYSTEM – A LITTLE CARE GOES A LONG WAY!
Your Aerobic Treatment Unit (ATU) works hard every day to treat wastewater and keep your system operating efficiently. But did you know that everyday household habits can impact how well it performs?
At Rowand Septic Services, we want homeowners to understand how to protect their ATU systems and avoid unnecessary problems!
✅ Be Mindful of What Goes Down the Drain – Avoid grease, harsh chemicals, antibacterial cleaners in excessive amounts, and anything that could disrupt the beneficial bacteria your system relies on.
✅ Conserve Water – Spread out laundry loads and other high-water-use activities to avoid overwhelming your system.
✅ Keep Your System Powered – ATU systems rely on electrical components to operate properly. Never disconnect or turn off your system without professional guidance.
✅ Pay Attention to Alarms – If your ATU alarm sounds or a warning light comes on, don't ignore it! These alerts can indicate a problem that needs attention.
✅ Protect Your Equipment – Keep access lids accessible and avoid driving or placing heavy objects over your ATU components and drain field.
✅ Stay on Top of Routine Maintenance – Regular professional servicing helps ensure your ATU's aerator, pumps, and other components are functioning as intended.
🔧 Your ATU is more than just a septic tank — it's a wastewater treatment system that needs proper care!
At Rowand Septic Services, we're committed to helping homeowners understand, maintain, and protect their ATU systems.
