Overhead Sewer Systems

An overhead sewer is a type of flood control system that is constructed to run straight through your foundation wall above the basement level. This allows the lowest opening of the sewer system to be above the highest water line of the main sewage. The sewage would then have to travel in an upward pattern before actually entering into the home. Since it is harder to travel upward, it makes it extremely unlikely for sewage back flow to enter into your home. Sewage will seek out the path of least resistance and travel through the easiest possible route. The Suburban Plumbing Experts can handle all aspects of your overhead sewer system.
