It’s dirty work–“the golden poop project”

We are official cityfied folks, our septic tank has been crushed and we are now on city sewer.

This was my kitchen today, as I couldn't run any water, so dishes kept piling up everywhere.

And this is a $5000 poop pump.  Yes folks it grinds up our poop and sends it, along with all the water that goes down the drains, into the sewer pipes.

There is a lot of earthwork involved, to crush the existing septic tank and then place this grinder pump.

Here is to hoping this works well and we don’t ever get sewer water backed up into our basement like we did with the septic tank.  A person only wants to clean up a basement full of stinky poop water once in their lifetime.
