Moisture load in Spring Hill

Water damage restoration in Spring Hill, including Brookridge and Trillium, goes to independent contractors working the area, whether the water came from the cooling system, a pipe or the weather. Hernando County has studied converting about 30,000 septic systems in 19 districts of the Spring Hill area to central sewer.

When these homes went up

Since 1990, Spring Hill has added 54.9 percent of the homes it has now, though the median still dates to 1993; builders of each era set the ducts and the cold surfaces where they remain. Some 28,950 homes here have septic systems on record, and where a tank's lid or riser sits at or below the level of the lawn, or its seal has cracked, rain running across the yard pours into the tank itself and fills it from above.

When the air turns heavy

Spring Hill spends two months in which the dewpoint never falls below 70 degrees, day or night, in July and August; of 56.51 inches in a normal year, 9.58 fall in July, rain recorded at SPRING HILL 2.4 NW 4.5 miles away and dewpoint 35.7 miles away. In July, the wettest month, a tank taking in rain through its lid fills faster than its drain field can empty it, so the house's drains slow and gurgle even on a day when the household has barely run any water.

What holds water in Spring Hill

  • Septic tank lids and risers set low in the lawn or cracked at the seal, where runoff pours in and fills the tank from above
  • Downspouts that empty onto or beside the drain field, adding a whole roof's runoff to the ground the field needs to stay open
  • Drain fields kept in use at some 28,950 homes with septic systems on record until each district's conversion to central sewer reaches them

Frequently asked questions

Can rain get into a Spring Hill septic tank?

It can. Where a tank's lid or riser sits at or below the level of the lawn, or the seal around it has cracked, rain running across the yard flows straight into the tank. In July, the wettest month, that can fill the tank faster than the drain field empties it, and the drains in the house slow down even when little water is being used. A lid that sits above the grass keeps runoff out.

Where should the downspouts go on a Spring Hill house with a septic system?

Away from the drain field. Some 28,950 Spring Hill homes have septic systems on record, and a downspout emptying onto or beside the field adds a whole roof's worth of rain to the ground the field relies on to take the household's water. Turning the downspouts toward another part of the yard leaves the field with only the rain that falls on it.

Is Spring Hill moving from septic systems to sewer?

Hernando County has studied the feasibility of converting about 30,000 septic systems in 19 districts of the Spring Hill area to central sewer, and its plans list districts of several hundred systems each for conversion. Until a district is connected, each home's tank and drain field still carry its household water, and keeping rain out of both matters most in the wettest months.
