Manila Water announces desludging schedule for January 2025
As the new year starts, East Zone concessionaire Manila Water continues to advocate for regular septic tank desludging as one of the simplest ways to protect the environment, as well as personal property.
The practice helps prolong the life of the septic system at home as it prevents blockages that can cause damage and deterioration of septic tanks.
On a broader scale, septic tank siphoning supports the protection of the environment and biodiversity through proper septage treatment. Desludging can also prevent pollutants from getting into water sources such as surface and groundwater.
