What changes in Fernandina Beach
Amelia Island's historic streets do not take a crane truck, and a replacement tank on those lots is polyethylene, carried to the hole and set against flotation in sandy ground. The new tank is sized to the house, which as a rental is often larger in occupancy than in bedrooms, and the county health department permits and inspects it around a schedule that avoids the change-over day.
Salt air on any pump, float and alarm is designed for from the start.
How the job runs
How a tank is replaced
The failed tank is pumped and inspected so the replacement is quoted from what is seen. The permit is filed with the county environmental health office, with the new tank sized to the bedroom count. The drain field is inspected honestly before the new tank is connected to it. The new tank, precast concrete or polyethylene depending on access and groundwater, is set level with risers to grade and inlet and outlet connected. The old tank is pumped, crushed and filled, or removed. The county inspects before backfill and the record is closed. Financing through Hearth is available.
