Renting out your cottage or cabin is a great way to share your slice of paradise — but it's worth knowing your septic system's limits before the guests arrive.
Most septic systems are designed for two people per bedroom. Exceeding that capacity can lead to backups, system failure, and lake pollution. Not exactly the review you're hoping for.
Before renters arrive, add a dose of EcoEthic Septic Treatment to give your system a boost of beneficial bacteria. And make sure renters know the basics — we have free printable septic care signs for both home and cottage that you can post near the toilet.
A little preparation goes a long way toward keeping your system healthy — and your guests happy.
