Understanding Your Septic Pump Chamber

The pump chamber for a Septic System is a concrete, fiberglass, or polyethylene container that collects the septic tank effluent (the liquids from a septic tank) and pumps it to the Leach field when gravity cannot move the wastewater effectively. The chamber contains a pump, control floats, and a high-water alarm, ensuring wastewater is discharged at appropriate intervals and preventing backups. Here are the components of a Pump Chamber:

The Pump: The heart of the chamber, it physically moves the wastewater
Control Floats: These floats detect the level of effluent in the chamber. When the level rises to a certain point, the float activates the pump. Once the level drops, the pump is turned off.
High-Water Alarm: This float triggers an alarm when the effluent level gets too high, indicating a potential problem with the pump or other system components. The alarm should consist of a buzzer and an easily visivle light. It should be on an electrical circuit separate from the pump. The pump discharge pipe should ahve a union and valve for easy removal of he pump. A piece of nylon rope or toher non-corrosive material should be attached to the pump for taking the pump in and out of the chamber.

What Happens if the Alarm Comes On?

An alarm float will trigger an alarm light to come on and a buzzer to sound if the effluent level inside the pump chamber gets too high. The could be caused by a faulty pump, float, or circuit, excessive water use, or other reasons.

Use water conservatively (avoid baths, showers, and clothes washing) until the problem is corrected. To silence the alarm, push the reset light on the alarm panel.

Before Calling for Service or Repair

Check to see if there is a tripped circuit breaker or blown fuse
Check to make sure the power cord is still plugged in
Check to see if the control floats are tangled by outer parts in the chamber such as the electric power cord, lifting rope, or pump screen. Floats should operate freely
Check to see if there is any debris on floats or support cable that is causing the pump to switch off. Lift the floats out of the chamber and clean

CAUTION: Always turn off the power supply at the circuit breaker and unplug all power cords before handling the pump or floats

Steve arrived on time and was very professional and checked out my entire septic system. This was a house that I’m in the process of purchasing and he had to mix up the sludge on two different occasions because there was so much in the septic tank I would highly recommend them to anyone.

I will be recommending Combat Drain and Septic Service to anyone. Steve was at my house before me and had already started digging down to the septic tank. He had pulled up the map to the property and knew exactly where the lid to the septic tank was. The tank was drained in no time and he checked and made sure everything looked good! GREAT SERVICE!!!

Great company to work with. Very punctual timing, and everything turned out great. We had our septic pumped out today and also added in the extension, so no more digging up my yard to access the tank. Highly recommend adding the extension. I personally learned a lot about how septic tanks work during the process. Highly recommend!
