How we repair your Septic Aerator
A septic aerator pumps air into an aerobic treatment unit so bacteria can break down wastewater before it leaves the system. A septic aerator uses an electric motor driving an impeller, a float or pressure switch that turns it on and off, check valves, and a power supply. A technician tests switches, motor and capacitor, and checks valves and piping.
