Tank locating and risers in Chattanooga, TN
Many tanks around Chattanooga are buried a foot or more down, and the lid location gets lost when houses change hands. Digging to find it every few years adds time and cost to each pumping.
A riser brings the access lid up to ground level, so future pumping and inspections start without a shovel.
