Systems last 20-50 years with:

  • Pumping: Every 3-5 years when sludge reaches one-third capacity (OBC requirement).

  • Filter Cleaning: Every 6-12 months for effluent filters.

  • Inspections: Annual checks for pumps and alarms to prevent freezing. Canadian Shield Consultants offers OOWA-certified maintenance contracts, reducing repair costs ($2,000-$10,000) and ensuring long-term reliability.
