"Great experience Justin, Nate & Timothy were awesome. Very knowledgeable, professional & curious. Aside from the cleanliness they delivered an experience. I highly recommend HL bowman if you want rapid service on your HVAC. Pricing was reasonable in my opinion & financing is an option. Keep in mind when seeking quotes for your HVAC repair/ new install you must consider performance over equipment, that is if your want a good system that will have a good run/life span."

"DEFINITELY RECOMMEND! Joe and Denise are very nice and easy to talk to. They listen to what you need and made sure you understand the plan before they do anything. We asked for extra work and are very accommodating. With regards to work itself, they took their time to do it right. With us, we had a last minute change of septic tank size and Joe was so nice to accomodate us. They did an excellent job with our septic system and will definitely recommend them. We also feel like we gain a friend!"

"The technician called on a Sunday night to get the details; see pictures and scheduled the appointment for the next morning. The young man, Samba and another partner arrived, assessed what needed to be done, took out the damaged tank, and brought in a new tank. They worked diligently and professionally."

"Considering the issue at hand; I had a good experience. I called and spoke with Ken the owner.  He asked me a few questions like if I knew the size of the the current hot water heater; make etc. which I was able to provide.
He heard in my voice the panic and re-assured me that it was not as bad as it appears; so he was comforting to speak with.
I was given a time frame of 2 hours when the workers would arrive with the new hot water heater which was precise.
The mechanic and helper removed the broker hot water heater and replaced with a new one.  Clean up was excellent.

Septic Tanks questions, answered by experts

Septic drain lines (or leach lines) are typically buried between 18 and 36 inches underground, and should be at least 6 inches below the surface. These pipes are perforated and surrounded by filtering materials like sand or gravel. Burying the lines at this depth helps minimize odors and allows bacteria and other biological processes in the soil to effectively treat the wastewater. Burying lines too close to the surface can cause issues unless the soil is very compact and stable.

A septic tank always has some amount of liquid in it—which should usually be 8 to 12 inches from the top of the tank. If the liquid level is higher than that or is overflowing the drainage pipe that leads out to the leach field, the tank may be too full and in need of pumping.

To prevent septic tank problems, save on repair costs, and keep your home running smoothly, it's essential to perform regular maintenance. Have your septic system inspected by a professional every one to three years, or annually if possible, to spot potential issues before they develop. You should also have your tank pumped every three to five years, or more frequently if recommended by a professional based on your household's usage. Additionally, be mindful of what goes into your system. Avoid flushing items like paper towels, wet wipes, and feminine hygiene products. Do not dispose of other inappropriate substances, and try to avoid excessive water usage at a single time.

A submersible pump should be at least 10 feet from the bottom of the well to minimize the risk of the pump drawing debris into the well water. Submersible pumps work best for wells that are 25 feet deep or less. If you have a deeper well, choose a jet pump instead of a submersible model.

Many variables, such as home size, type of engineered system, the material used, soil conditions, and water usage, dictate how long your system will last. On average, most homeowners find that their system lasts 15 to 20 years, though it’s not unheard of for them to last up to 40 years with annual and preventative septic maintenance.
