Aerobic systems treat wastewater more completely than a standard tank — but they have more moving parts and need regular care. We install and service them across Middle Georgia.
A conventional septic tank relies on bacteria that work without oxygen. An aerobic treatment unit adds air to the wastewater, which supports a different kind of bacteria that breaks waste down more completely. The cleaner water that leaves the unit can make septic systems possible on lots where a conventional system wouldn't work as well.
Stewart Septic Services provides aerobic treatment system installation and service for homes and businesses across Macon and Middle Georgia. We install new units, keep existing units running and repair aerators, pumps and alarms when they fail.
Because aerobic systems rely on mechanical parts, regular service is especially important to keep them working the way they were designed.
Aerobic units are often the answer for properties with special challenges.
Sites where the soil can't adequately treat wastewater from a standard tank.
Properties where groundwater is close to the surface.
Limited space for a full-size conventional drain field.
Properties near lakes, streams or wells that need higher treatment.
An aerobic system has an aerator that runs constantly, plus pumps, timers and alarms. When any of those parts stop working, the system stops treating wastewater the way it should — often without obvious signs at first.
Routine service catches worn aerators, clogged diffusers and pump problems before they lead to odors, alarms or backups. Aerobic units also need to be pumped periodically, just like standard tanks.
Whether we installed your system or you inherited it with the property, we can keep it on a regular service schedule.
