We had ours replaced before Rita, the old tank was caved in. The only maintenance we have had was to replace the air pump. That's not uncommon. It's about time to have it pumped out. Sludge builds up over time. They were able to tie into my existing field lines. My mother-in-law bought a new house two doors down from us, she has the White Water system. At that time, the parish required the shed type field lines. Tree roots got into the field lines and stopped them up. It backed up and made a stinky mess. She had the field lines replaced with perforated pipe and no more problems. Sounds like Deerfarmer is the expert. Call me if you need any more info from me. 477-5770
