Septic Tank Lids | Manhole Cover | Access Risers
Wadena MN properties that use an Onsite Septic System will most likely have a Septic Tank to hold the sewage and waste water. When the time comes to have the tank pumped out it should always be done through the Septic Tank Manhole Cover or Tank Lid. Older septic systems often have the manhole cover buried approximately one foot under groung. This can make locating and digging up the tank lid challenging since it will need to be done about every two to three years. Installing a Septic Tank Access Riser can be the simplest way to get the job done with an older sewer system. New Septic Systems Installed by Custom Septic Inc. (CSI) have the manhole cover lying flush with the ground so in that case an access riser isn’t necessary.
Installing a Manhole Cover Access Riser
Having to find and dig up the manhole cover every time the septic tank needs pumping is not cheap. Installing a Manhole Cover Access Riser can be a very wise investment. It allows easier access for septic maintenance companies. In return, your septic tank pumping bill can be less expensive each time you call for service.
A Septic Manhole Cover is also known as a Septic Tank Lid or a Maintenance Cover. They are used to make septic tank cleaning faster, easier and more complete than trying to work around a smaller, more constricted space. Installing an extension to the septic tank opening provides better accessibility in case of a problem.
Manhole Extension Risers
An Access or Extension Riser may be made of several different materials. They are made to rest on top of the septic tank and raise the manhole cover up to grade level for easier locating when needed. The Septic Tank Lid fits on top of the Manhole Extension Riser. Make sure the fit is watertight to prevent flooding of the tank. The riser can be made of any one of the following materials:
- Metal Adjustment Rings
- Plastic Access Risers
- Concrete Extension Risers
- Polyethylene Material
