FAQs for Benson, MN Owners

How often should I pump?

Bio-boosts help flow, but only mechanical pumping removes sludge and scum.

Choose shallow-rooted plants and avoid trees or heavy beds; compaction and roots are the enemy of percolation.

What if I smell odors?

Smells mean gas movement or saturationfast inspection prevents damage.

Why camera inspections?
