Septic Solutions - Professionals of the Onsite Wastewater Industry

The Largest Septic System Installation Company in Illinois

The owners of Septic Solutions also own a company called James Backhoe Service, Inc. which was started in 1989. James Backhoe Service designs and installs on average 150 septic systems each year. In the early 1990s, JBS began installing Class 1 Aerobic Systems. A Class 1 Aerobic System includes a tank with an air pump and diffusers. These systems also require alarms and control panels and full 2 year warranties. The warranty requires that our service technicians return to each system twice per year during the first 2 years to provide the proper maintenance necessary to keep these systems functioning as designed.

Our septic system installation company has installed as many as 259 complete Class 1 Aerobic Systems in a single year. James Backhoe Service is the largest septic system installation company in the state of Illinois. After the required 4 service visits, our company offers continuing service agreements and maintenance programs to the thousands of our customers whose system we installed. Nothing, including being an engineer, can surpass the valuable experience we have gained in servicing those thousands of systems. It was this experience that was incorporated into developing the SepAerator™.

Septic Solutions Assembles and Distributes Aerobic Systems

Septic Solutions has been in business since 2000 as an Illinois state distributor of Class 1 Aerobic Systems. Our company has assembled and sold more than 6,500 Class 1 Aerobic Systems from our location in Dieterich, Illinois. During this time our staff has trained a large network of dealers to install and maintain these systems and have also provided those dealers with all of the septic related products they need. Should any one of those dealers have an aerobic installation that is not functioning properly, they can call Septic Solutions and we will help them make the necessary repairs. We may not be an engineer with experience working for lawnmower or motorcycle companies; however it would be difficult for anyone who knows us to classify us as an amateur in the aerobic industry. One of the owners of Septic Solutions was a past President of the Onsite Wastewater Professionals of Illinois and is currently on an Advisory Commision and has been for the past 6 years. This Commission’s purpose is to provide valuable input to the Illinois Department of Public Health for the continuing process of updating our Current Sewage Code.

The Aerobic Industry has been around for more than 50 Years

Some of our competition claims that they discovered these aerobic technologies during the past 5 or 6 years. They also have the boldness to claim that they perfected the science that fixes septic problems and prevents them. For those of us who have been in the aerobic industry for the past 20 years, these types of statements are best explained as a figment of someone’s imagination or at worst a bold marketing strategy that is based on deception. The aerobic industry has been around for more than 50 years. It is impossible for someone who has been using a simplified version of aerobic technology for the past 5 or 6 years to have contributed anything remotely related to discovering or perfecting it.

The Technology of Rejuvenating Failed Fields Has Been Used for More Than 35 Years

Some companies claim that they have patented the technology that fixes septic problems and prevents them. Having a patent on a multitude of claims that is related to restoring a failed field absorption system is far different than claiming to hold the Patent for all the Technology with regards to fixing and preventing septic problems. Our septic system installation company has been using Aerobic systems consisting of air pumps and diffusers to rejuvenate failed field absorption systems since 1994. Many counties in Illinois require that when installing an aerobic system that it must be followed by and tied into the existing failed field it is replacing or a new field. Most states require by law that all aerobic installations must discharge subsurface into a field, mound, drip disposal, etc. This Technology has been ongoing in Illinois and elsewhere for over 20 years. A company called Fast Systems claims to have been adding aerobic equipment to existing septic tanks and rejuvenating failed field absorption systems for more than 35 years, according to their website information.
