F.A.Q About Septic system
installation near Broken Bow, OK
Why concrete septic tanks Instead of plastics or fiberglass?
The most costly thing that can go wrong with a septic system is tank failure - and fiberglass tanks fail far more often than concrete tanks. Concrete is more durable, not to mention more affordable to install - especially when it’s a one-piece system like ours. However, plastic or fiberglass does have its place if the terrain is too rugged.
What do I have to do to maintain an Canyon Creek Precast system?
Most Canyon Creek Precast owners contract out regular maintenance to reduce upkeep to minutes a month. Just leave the power on, keep ants away from aeration compressor and mow around the tank and sprinkler heads, and keep chlorine in the system. Alarms warn you when something is wrong, and servicing is easy because all tank chambers are accessible through Tuf-Tite risers.
How long does installation take?
Because Canyon Creek Precast is usually a one-piece system, installation is fast. Unless your system is going into a rocky area, your installer—depending on their schedule—should be able to complete the installation in one day.
What size is the Canyon Creek Precast septic tank?
Canyon Creek Precast offers conventional and aerobic one, two and three part systems. A one part system maintains up to a three bedroom. A two part system maintains a four plus bedroom. A 3 tank system maintains commercial buildings, RV parks, and large residential properties.
Is the system safe for homeowners with children and pets?
Absolutely. The system’s Tuf-Tite lids are sealed and secured for safety. And internal safety lids provide an extra layer of protection. A timer on the control panel lets you disperse the treated, odorless wastewater only at night, so you won’t have to worry about the sprinklers coming on while your family or pets are outside. (Note that if the system floods during the day due to excessive water usage, the sprinklers will activate automatically to alleviate tank flooding.)
What about the warranty?
All Canyon Creek Precast carry a two-year warranty for all tank components, including the control panel, electrical wiring, mercury floats, and air and water pump. The tank itself is also covered by a two-year warranty.
