Kelly Crossroads Low Pressure Sewer System

Kelly Crossroads is a village in Central Pennsylvania near the town of Lewisburg. The area has very clayey soils which reduces sewage effluent percolation into the ground. This slow soil percolation caused a number of  home septic systems to fail.  The Township needed a solution  that protected the homeowners and the environment.

Engineers from HRG designed a low pressure system alternative septic system solution. The design required a pump system at each residence to collect the residential sewage to be conveyed through a system of small diameter pipes to a wastewater treatment plant.

The system consisted of 49 Zoeller Engineered Products Model 7021 2 HP progressive cavity pump lift-stations. The pumps were mounted on Z Rail® Systems with stainless guide rails. Installing or removing the pumps within the basins slides easily up or down the guide rails to the base elbow. Accessing the pumps does not require pump disassembly and is self-aligning. No tools are required.

49 systems were delivered, installed, and started up. Homeowners contracted the installation out while the municipality purchased the systems and sold them to the homeowners.  The homeowners, contractors, and municipal operators were involved with a factory led training session prior to shipment of systems so all involved had some hands on knowledge of the systems.

All systems were delivered and installed on time. Zoeller Engineered Products works hand in hand with local contractors and engineers to solve the issues of the community sewer systems. Have an issue that needs assistance, Give us a chance to solve the problem.  1-800-928-Pump (7867).
