Learn more about ATU septic systems and whether one would work on your property.
Understanding how different types of septic systems work is helpful in determining which is the right fit on your property. Whether you’re interested in adding a system to an existing property or replacing components that are already in place, you may want to know about the two main options. They include anaerobic and aerobic, and the terms refer to the type of bacteria breaking down the waste that moves through the system. Anaerobic bacteria don’t rely on oxygen, while aerobic bacteria do need it.
An aerobic treatment unit (ATU) contains this type of bacteria, and these systems are more common in the Ocala, Florida area. The low elevation in the region may require the use of ATU septic systems, so many of the permits being approved by local agencies are for this type. If you’re interested in learning more about ATU septic systems or whether one would work on your property, contact Sauer Septic. We bring decades of experience in the septic industry, offering installation, repair, replacement, and maintenance services to local clients.
Part of our efforts include securing the necessary permits for the installation of a new or replacement septic system.
