As a homeowner with a septic tank, it's important to think about the environmental impact of septic waste. Proper treatment and disposal of wastewater is imperative to help maintain a healthy planet, something the septic tank care experts at Gecko Enterprises in Waialua, HI, take very seriously. They strive to keep groundwater protected at all times, and they're here to help you understand why this is so important:

• Groundwater Contamination: According to government agencies, onsite septic systems are the third most common reason for groundwater contamination. The USEPA notes that some 168,000 viral illnesses and 34,000 bacterial illnesses occur every year from drinking contaminated groundwater.
• Site Conditions And More: Evaluating site conditions, defining set performance boundaries, and characterizing types of wastewater all contribute to better protection of precious groundwater. The team at Gecko Enterprises takes special care when performing septic tank cleaning for this express purpose.

• Biofilers: Biofilters are used to treat a wide variety of wastewater types, including domestic wastewater, dairy wastewater, and animal waste. Filtration retains harmful microorganisms, leading to slower growth rate.

Remember, a properly designed septic tank system from Gecko Enterprises does not pose a threat to groundwater. Work with the experienced, knowledgeable team at Gecko Enterprises to ensure proper septic tank care and wastewater management.
