Other than being good maintenance, pumping helps prolong the life expectancy of your septic system... And, it is required by state and county codes that you have the septic tank pumped or inspected at least once every three (3) years. The Door County Sanitarian Department sends Septic Tank Service Report forms to homeowners every three years. This form is sent in spring, allowing ample time for completion in regard to the servicing and inspection of your septic tank. The completed form is expected to be returned to their office prior to October 31st of that same year. In order for our serviceman to complete our portion of the DOOR COUNTY MAINTENANCE PUMPING REPORT we need your signed and completed form in advance of the service call. Please print a copy of the form provided below, complete your portion... and mail it to: PEIL INDUSTRIES, INC.
