Problem: The McDonald’s restaurant in Chesaning, Michigan, utilized an ATU system followed by a sand filter and leach bed. After more than a decade of high-strength restaurant load, the leachfield and sand filter both failed.

Sloan Septic conducted the renovation, pulling out the old equipment and rerouting some of the plumbing to create a sequential flow pattern. Sloan installed six S-86 aerobic bacterial generators and seven supplemental Medusa air diffusers for
