Aerobic Treatment Units (ATUs) are advanced wastewater systems that use oxygen to break down waste more efficiently than traditional septic systems.

ATU Maintenance Agreements for Long-Term System Health


Regular maintenance is critical to keep ATUs operating efficiently and to remain compliant with local authorities.

Dave W is a great guy, super helpful and friendly. He did a great job pumping our tank AND making sure everything was flowing corrrectly before he sealed up the tank again. We can’t ask for better service! Highly recommended.


Bill and Alyson K.

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

We were very pleased with the service of Southern Sanitary Systems. They pumped the tanks at our house and our son’s house next door. Luciano was prompt, efficient, and very pleasant to work with. He quickly found both tanks and was careful to smooth the ground over them when finished. I plan to use their service again when needed.

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

Southern Sanitary just recently finished our septic....new tank, lift station, and drain field completed by Vincent and Walter. They did a great job and honestly went above and beyond with fixing our yard, answering questions, and working with us throughout the process. The price was reasonable as well and fell in the middle of other quotes I received. I would highly recommend!
