About Us

Report

Pete's Outflow Technicians was founded in 1953 by the original owner, Pete Walquist, offering septic tank and line cleaning services in Santa Cruz County. Pete owned and operated the business solely until 1966, when Darrel Brown was hired on as temporary help. Darrel came from the California State Parks, maintaining and rebuilding the local area beaches, parks and campgrounds.

Septic Maintenance Tips

Report

We recommend pumping your septic tank periodically to remove the solids that build up over time which will help prolong the life of your system. Most systems, depending on your family size, tank capacity, type of use and condition of your system, will need to be pumped every 3 to 5 years. Do not run laundry wastes directly into the drainage system because soap and detergent scums will quickly clog the soil pores and cause failure. We do not recommend using most additives as they have little or no benefit and can cause harm to the system.

Real Estate Inspections

Report

Someone buying a new property will need to ensure that everything is up to working condition, and that includes the OSSF (On-Site Sewage Facilities). A thorough real estate septic inspection can tell you everything you need to know about a property's sewage disposal system, including if it needs to be replaced.

Grease Traps

Report

Fats, oils, grease and solid waste are the bane of many a restaurant, commercial or industrial enterprise. The accumulation of solid waste may lead to flow problems, unpleasant odors and even citations from city authorities. Pete's Outflow Technicians of Santa Cruz deliver expert grease trap cleaning service that keeps buildup under control.
