This is interesting, some of you on Monday evening had a power failue and it was out for about an hour. Well guess what, we would not have had a septic tank!!!!!!
We have been telling you a lot about the cost of a PBTS system that the Department of Health is about to mandate for all homeowners with septic systems in the Wekiva Study Area. That $10K-20K cost per homeowner is enough to bring more than half the population impacted by this to their collective economic knees. But, there is more. The following information is taken directly from the “homeowner’s manual” available on the Hoot Systems website(Google Hoot Systems). Hoot is an DOH approved provider for the PBTS systems that are part of the DOH rule. Is the DOH supposed to endanger us and subject the citizens of Florida to health hazards as serious as infection and death? Is realistic to expect the average Florida citizen to deal with this? The industry experts have said this type of system is not suitable for residential use. This tells you in no uncertain terms why. Will Hoot Systems or the State of Florida, or the DOH be legally responsible for the injury, illness, and deaths of citizens who are unable to follow the instruction manual to the letter, or who will be unable to afford the required maintenance?
