HEY, NICE BOD

Typical domestic sewage contains many elements that must be removed before it reaches groundwater


BOD measures the strength of wastewater"BOD"

"Biochemical Oxygen Demandis the amount of dissolved oxygen needed by water-based organisms to break down organic matter over a period of time 

THE BOD TEST


A BOD test measures the quantity of oxygen consumed by microorganisms during a 5-day period 


BOD measures the strength of wastewater


BOD is used as a gauge of the effectiveness of wastewater treatment plants


CAUSES OF HIGH BOD

These are the common causes of high BOD:

WHY YOUR WATER BILL SKYROCKETED

Leaking toilets waste more water than any other fixture in your home:


A silent toilet leak can waste 50 to 300 gallons per day


An audible leak can waste more than 500 gallons per day


Silent toilet leaks can waste hundreds of gallons of water each day


COMMON CAUSES


A deteriorated flush valve system is the most common culprit of toilet leaks -- it can also be the most difficult to detect because the leak is SILENT

broken or poorly placed fill valve (or ball cock) causing the shut-off valve to not completely close is the second most common toilet leak

CHECKING FOR LEAKS

Quickly check for leaks by placing 10 drops of dye into the toilet tank - wait for 10-15 minutes - if any dye appears in the toilet bowl you have a leak problem that must be addressed right away

PREVENT PROBLEMS


Identify and repair toilet leaks to helps avoid these serious problems:

  • your toilet stops working
  • your home or septic system floods
  • you waste a massive and expensive amount of water
  • you cause hydraulic overload damage to your septic system
