Cesspools Cleaning Options


There are 3 common ways to clean out your cesspool, each with their own set of advantages and drawbacks.

Aeration
This is a process of  pouring sulfuric acid into the cesspool. The acid will break down the solid waste and sludge material which allows for air to pass through and break down and further breakdown the waste. The downside to this is the corrosive nature of the sulfuric acid which can cause damage to the inner walls of the cesspool if not used correctly.

Hydro-Jetting
Hydro-jetting is a process of shooting high-pressure water into the ground at the bottom of a cesspool. This method breaks up the solids and has a fast recovery time when cleaning a cesspool.

Pumping
This is the most common way to clean out a cesspool. This method involves the use of a large certified pumping truck with extracts the contents of a cesspool into a large storage tank. Pumping should be done anywhere between once a year to once every 3 or 4 years depending on the size of your cesspool.

Maintaining A Cesspool System Below are a few ways to  maintain a cesspool . Each method listed has its pros and cons.

Onsite sewage system service providers and installers who clean out septic, holding and pump tanks along with aerobic treatment units, and perform operation and maintenance and repairs are commonly exposed to untreated wastewater that contains disease-causing organisms including pathogens, which are primarily bacteria and viruses. When a septic system professional is working on a system, it is unlikely to know what specific disease-causing organisms are in the wastewater, including COVID-19. COVID-19 concentrations and survival in feces, sewage or water are currently unknown.  The virus that causes COVID-19 has been detected in the feces of some patients diagnosed with COVID-19. The amount of virus released from the body (shed) in stool, how long the virus is shed and whether the virus in stool is infectious are not known. According to research conducted by the Washington On-Site Sewage Association, the aerosolization of s ewage through standard methods of pumping pose the

Conventional water treatment methods that use filtration and disinfection , such as those in most municipal drinking water systems, should remove or inactivate the virus that causes COVID-19. COVID-19 and Human Feces The virus that causes COVID-19 has been detected in the feces of some patients diagnosed with COVID-19. The amount of virus released from the body (shed) in stool, how long the virus is shed, and whether the virus in stool is infectious are not known. The risk of transmission of the virus that causes COVID-19 from the feces of an infected person is also unknown. However, the risk is expected to be low based on data from previous outbreaks of related coronaviruses, such as severe acute respiratory syndrome (SARS) and Middle East respiratory syndrome (MERS). There has been no confirmed fecal-oral transmission of COVID-19 to date. Pools & Hot Tubs r
