If you own a business, or if you’re in charge of your company’s financial results, you probably ask yourself these questions on a regular basis: “How can we grow this?” and “How can we improve the bottom line?”
In the past year, we’ve seen a shift in the way many people are vacationing, with demand moving from plane trips and hotels to motor homes and recreational vehicles (RVs). The increased interest in RV parks and campgrounds presents new challenges to property owners, especially regarding wastewater treatment. Because many of these parks are located well outside the boundaries of centralized sewer systems, a reliable RV park sewage system is a critical investment. Property owners must make a significant investment in this infrastructure, which includes a properly sized septic tank for RV park use, to handle the unique demands of their guests.
There are many decentralized wastewater treatment options available to small towns and communities. Here at Infiltrator we’ve had the privilege of working with communities, engineers, and installers to bring customized wastewater treatment options to these areas. Here are a few examples of how Infiltrator assisted small communities with fulfilling their wastewater treatment requirements and saving the expense of a wastewater treatment plant.
Many of us have mentors that we look up to as wise practitioners and professional counsellors during our formative years as young engineers. These folks often have small tidbits of knowledge that transform how we think about a particular topic. I would like to share a few special pieces of wisdom that have been shared with me over the years.
The Advanced Enviro-Septic (AES) treatment system is a passive, non-mechanical secondary wastewater treatment system that provides both effluent treatment and dispersal in the same small footprint. Since the 1990’s, AES has been installed in residential and commercial wastewater treatment applications throughout the United States, Canada, and internationally in Europe and Australia. In addition to holding NSF/ANSI 40 and BNQ certification, the AES treatment system offers several benefits to septic system installers and homeowners.
