Foreign Object Causes HSTP Pump Failure

We recently had a call in Thornlands where a client’s Household Sewage Treatment Plant (HSTP) had stopped working. After a quick inspection, we found the cause: a foreign object had gotten into the system. This object created a blockage that eventually made the pump fail and burn out.

Our team got right to work. We replaced the broken pump, completely cleared the blockage from the system, and got everything running smoothly again.

This job is a great reminder that you should only ever flush wastewaterand approved materials. Keeping foreign items out of your HSTP is the best way to prevent costly breakdowns and ensure your system continues to run reliably.
