Newer Systems Need Maintenance Too
Many homes built in Pine Bush and the Town of Montgomery in recent years have systems with effluent filters, risers, and sometimes pump chambers with alarms. That's good design, but a filter that's never cleaned will eventually back the house up, and an alarm nobody tests may not sound when it should. Ask your septic pro to show you where everything is the first time they pump.
Outside the sewered cores of Montgomery, Walden and Maybrook, older homes along the Wallkill River and the farm roads have older systems. Those often need locating, risers and a careful look at the field.
Common Requests
- Effluent filter cleaning and routine pumping
- Alarm and pump-chamber service
- Inspections for home sales
- Replacement of older farmhouse systems

Questions from Pine Bush & Montgomery
My house is only a few years old. Does it need pumping?
Yes. Pumping depends on use, not age. New systems still collect sludge and scum, and filters still need cleaning. Start a schedule now so the field stays healthy.
