There are many benefits of ATU septic systems.

When municipal wastewater treatment isn’t available on your property, it’s important for you to have a septic system to treat your waste instead. There are many types of septic systems, but ATU septic systems are among the most effective and environmentally friendly choices available to you.

ATU Septic Systems in Orlando, Florida

We want to address the question on your mind: What are ATU septic systems? ATU septic systems are aerobic treatment units. In contrast to conventional septic systems, which use anaerobic bacteria to treat waste, ATUs inject oxygen into the treatment tank to allow aerobic bacteria to break down the waste and reduce pathogens in the effluent before it is dispersed in the soil. The system’s processes are similar to those of a municipal sewage plant, albeit on a smaller scale. In addition, ATU septic systems are very beneficial for homes with small lots or poor soil as well as in areas with a high water table or that are near a body of water.

Our team at Sauer Septic is prepared to help you with all aspects of your ATU septic system. We can install your ATU system with attention to detail to ensure that it will function properly. Because ATU septic systems require more maintenance than conventional systems, we also encourage you to schedule regular maintenance with us so we can check for issues and keep your system in good condition. We also provide repairs should you ever need them. No matter what your ATU system needs, you can trust us to handle everything.

We are proud to serve Orlando, Florida, and we hope you will contact us with your questions.

FAQs About ATU Septic Systems

You can rely on our team at Sauer Septic to install and service ATU septic systems. To learn more about these systems, feel free to check out the frequently asked questions below and contact us if you have any other questions on the topic.

What is the benefit of aerobic bacteria over anaerobic bacteria?
Aerobic bacteria is more efficient at breaking down waste than anaerobic bacteria, and it results in cleaner effluent. The cleaner the effluent, the safer the environment is.
Are ATU septic systems required in Florida?
Many areas of Florida now require new septic installations to be ATUs. ATU septic systems are becoming the norm throughout the state because of the low elevation and new BMAP regulations.
What should I expect from an ATU septic system in terms of maintenance?

Because ATU septic systems contain more complex components than conventional systems, maintenance tends to be more demanding. It’s important to monitor air pumps, diffusers, electrical components, and anything else related to aeration in addition to the regular septic system parts.

Do ATU septic systems require drain fields?
In general, ATU septic systems do not always require a drain field, but it depends on specific state and local requirements. Even when drain fields are required, however, they tend to be smaller than drain fields for standard septic systems. In fact, ATUs allow for drain fields that are up to half the size of drain fields required for conventional systems.
