Septic Compass is a free service that connects homeowners with licensed local septic companies. We are not a contractor and do not perform septic work.
An aerobic treatment unit pumps air into the tank so oxygen-loving bacteria break down waste more thoroughly than a standard tank. It's used where soil or space won't support a conventional drain field. It treats effluent to a higher standard but needs more maintenance and often a permitted service contract.
