Effluent Filters: Protecting Your Drainfield in Covington
Many modern septic systems in the Covington, GA area utilize an effluent filter (also known as a septic filter) to protect the most expensive part of your system: the drainfield.
What is an Effluent Filter?
Its Job: Located in the outlet baffle of the septic tank, the effluent filter is a removable cartridge that acts as a final barrier. It catches any small suspended solids that might have made it through the septic tank.
The Problem It Solves: If these tiny particles were allowed to pass into the drainfield, they would eventually clog the soil, causing the drainfield to fail. A failed drainfield is a costly problem, requiring replacement.
Filter Cleaning and Maintenance
Our Service: At A1 Pumping Repair, we check, clean, or change your effluent filter as needed, often during a routine septic pumping service.
Why it Matters: A dirty or clogged filter will slow down the outflow of wastewater, causing backups in your home. By keeping your filter clean, we ensure your entire septic system—especially your drainfield—lasts longer and functions efficiently for your Covington property.
