The grinder pumps, if you have one, are a necessary component of the sewage system.  After the one year warranty any major service issues can be very expensive to correct. 

THE MOST IMPORTANT NO NO IS THE DUMPING OF GREASE DOWN THE DRAIN.  NEVER DISPOSE OF COOKING GREASE OR ANY GREASE DOWN THE DRAIN.

• The Four Seasons Lakesites POA Security Officers watch for the red alarm lights and audible alarm sound on the pumps during their regular patrols.  Security calls in any alarms they observe for investigation by Enviro-Line.  (Keep in mind that not all pump control boxes can be seen or heard from the road by the Security Officer during normal patrols.)
