😂. Mine were 24” deep! It had 12” cement riser so I also had to dig 3ft diameter holes. I added two additional 12” cement risers to each port. It took me 3 hours to dig in the Arizona hot springs and another 3 hours to add the heavy risers!
That’s crazy! As a buyer I would definitely make it a condition to put in risers, no way am I going to suck up that cost in the future for maintenance!
Just my average day in the Far North New Zealand . But most often through heavy wet clay to mid tank slab lids 3foot wide by 5 foot long on 2000 gallon tanks, some are six foot deep , getting strong shoulders.
I'm up north with really cold winters, but there's an added benefit to having my tank 4' down. My house is a split level with the lower level partially underground, so with the added depth, my bathroom, laundry and floor drains don't require an ejector pump system.
Mine has 6 rectangular concrete slabs on top with no openings. I have to dig down two feet and hoist them out with the tractor. Is there any way to install risers on a tank like that?
Of course. Just have to make a specific diameter hole(s) in the square covers and remove the material inside that diameter hole. Place and glue risers in place after putting lids back on tank. Then place covers on top of risers and secure. Might need power chisel and rebar cutters to make job easier.
I have a question. If you were septic was flooded along with everything else that was flooded during the hurricane. When the waters go down, will your septic be OK or do you need a new septic? Or do you need to get it cleaned out or what? Does anybody know the answer to this?
Hey Mr love the content but how bout a bit of footage of the truck and it's operation. I'm a 30 plus years as a heavy truck mechanic and only worked on a couple of them. The front half thank God. But ya I think that it would be interesting ty. 👍🇨🇦🔧
Great job and getting paid for a workout digging such deep holes. No gym required!
Great job, great business, and you should be proud of yourself.
Why is it that watching a guy empty septic tanks on TH-cam is more interesting than anything on mainstream telly?
Idk but I was thinking the same thing but I'm here for it lol
It's because he takes out the sewage and they put it in
Smells like money! Love it Mark McKenna from Tucson, AZ

Wow! We just looked at a house and there was no septic plan available. I will not buy one unless they know where the tank is.

I ate a brownie while watching this
😂
I ate corn
I ate Nutella 😂
@@Jumpnjacksdaddy ewww nasty.
Back Breaking Monday! That was a lot of work. In the end it did smell like money.
Mine was about 3 feet deep. I dug it out myself because they were going to charge me $90 an hour to dig it out. Then I put risers in.

Id offer to install risers at cost so you dont have to dig it up next time.
I just run mine to the neighbors garden. 😂
damn what is this pokemon chill vibe music, this is tight
Is it weird that I’m watching this from the toilet?? Mmmmm smells like money
08:01 Yay, the crust buster 😁 The best bit? 13:17
Why would they ever burry it so deep? Particulary when there is no threat of freezing in Texas?

@PoorPumperSociety, what do you do when it rains? Can you work while it rains?
How much would a job like that cost? Not including risers.
How long does it have to sit for it to settle like that?
What was that in the inlet pipe??

Wow that must be an old tank. Seen one like that

@@jbsimmons54 Can you buy risers or do you just make them out of PVC pipe?
@@criticalevent
You need specific diameter risers. Dom has several videos on how to install them if you want to DIY. Check them out.
@@jbsimmons54 thanks.
Wow. With all that mud on the outflow side, that drain field can't be pretty...
way tu go
Redefining the name Sweat pants 😂
😂😂😂

Smells like money
