Homeowner Hint — Protect Your Leaching Bed This Season
Your leaching bed needs oxygen and space to work properly.

Avoid these common spring mistakes:

Parking, patios, or heavy structures over the bed

Planting trees or shrubs (roots clog pipes)

Watering the lawn above the bed

Letting roof or driveway runoff flow toward the system

Driving snowmobiles over the bed in winter (reduces insulation)

Keeping the area clear helps wastewater absorb and treat properly.
