When soil conditions, lot size, or proximity to water require an aerobic treatment system, we install high-quality units built to last and fully compliant with Oklahoma regulations.
Not every property can accommodate a conventional septic system. If your soil fails a perc test, your lot is too small for an adequate drain field, or your property is within a certain distance of a water body or neighboring well, Oklahoma DEQ will require an aerobic treatment unit (ATU) instead.
Aerobic systems treat wastewater more thoroughly than conventional systems by introducing oxygen into the treatment process. The treated effluent is then disinfected — typically with chlorine — before being discharged through spray heads or a subsurface system.
Talley Backhoe and Septic Services installs aerobic systems from reputable manufacturers and handles everything from permitting through final inspection. We'll also walk you through your ongoing maintenance requirements so you know exactly what to expect.
From first call to final inspection — here's what working with Talley looks like.
We evaluate your property to confirm an aerobic system is required and determine the right system type and placement.
We coordinate with Oklahoma DEQ for all required permits. Aerobic installations require a permit before any work begins.
Our crew installs the aerobic treatment unit and all associated components to manufacturer and DEQ specifications.
We install and configure the effluent distribution system — spray heads or a subsurface drip/leach field.
We start up the system, verify all components are functioning, and walk you through your maintenance obligations.
Locally owned, licensed, insured, and we stand behind our work across southeastern Oklahoma.
Aerobic systems are approved for lots and soil conditions that rule out conventional septic options.
