Septic Service in Boise

Lift stations are essential to functional waste management systems. A lift station is a mechanism of pumps that allows water to be carried from a place of low elevation to a place of higher elevation. Ideally sewage lines work together with the land gradient in your area to allow gravity to do most of the work in carrying sewage, waste, and storm water from place to place. A lift station allows that same reliance on gravity when sewage lines and the gradient of the land cannot work together.  Here is the step-by-step of how a lift station works: 1) Waste water is pumped from your home (ie. using a toilet, sink, shower, laundry machine. etc). 2) The waste travels downhill to a low point where it can no longer travel by gravity. 3) At that low point, a lift station is installed that is intended to assist the waste water in its navigation through the sewer system.  4) The water enters into and begins filling up an underground basin or tank called a " wet well "; in this wet

When the ground freezes,  it is difficult to dig into the ground to treat your septic tank.
