Benefits Beyond Your Home:
Regular desludging, also known as siphoning, is crucial for maintaining a healthy septic tank system. Septic tanks act as mini wastewater treatment plants for homes that aren’t connected to a centralized sewer system. Over time, solid waste accumulates in the tank, which can lead to clogs, overflows, and potential health hazards.
By participating in Manila Water’s desludging program, homeowners can ensure their septic tanks function efficiently,preventing sewage backups and potential environmental damage. Additionally, the collected sludge is properly treated by Manila Water before discharge, safeguarding the health of waterways and marine life.
Taking Advantage of the Service:
Residents in the listed barangays are encouraged to reach out to their respective barangay offices or contact Manila Water’s Customer Service Hotline at 1627 to confirm the exact schedule for the desludging caravan in their area. This proactive approach can save you from potential headaches and costly repairs down the line.
Beyond September:
While the desludging caravan focuses on specific areas each month, Manila Water remains committed to educating residents about the importance of proper septic tank maintenance. Remember, desludging is recommended every 3-5 years. By working together, homeowners and Manila Water can ensure a healthier environment for everyone.
