Homes with septic systems on properties with uneven grades often require lift stations to facilitate the movement of drainage from the house through the system. Lakeland Septic Company installs, inspects and repairs lift stations in Haines City, FL, and all of Polk County, FL.
Does Your Property Need a Lift Station?
Modern lift stations are pumping devices that include an alarm, a ventilation system, an odor-control system, a main power supply and other components. If the grade of your property prevents drainage from reaching the septic tank or drain field, a lift station is the solution.
Lakeland Septic installs lift station pumping systems on new properties being developed in and around Haines City, FL. We can install either the lift station or the entire septic system.
Lift Station Inspection
A damaged lift station should be inspected by one of our Haines City, FL, septic inspectors immediately. Note that damage in other areas of the septic system can mimic lift station issues, so schedule an inspection to pinpoint the exact cause of the problem.
When a lift station pump begins to fail, you may notice some or all of these signs:
- Slow or backed-up toilets
- Sinks and tub drains throughout the home backing up with sewage
- Foul odors inside or outside your home
- Wet patches of ground above or around the septic system
- Lush green grass growing near the septic system
