Aero-Stream AS-R47 47 in HDPE Septic Tank Riser Kit in the Water Pump
MEASURE UP
Prior to purchasing a septic tank riser kit, there are key measurements to take into consideration. The primary measurement will be the size of your opening(s) to ensure our kits are compatible. This measurement will either be the diameter (circular openings) or a combination of length and width (square/rectangular openings). It’s important to remove the existing cover(s) to gather an accurate measurement of the opening(s). Existing cover(s) may vary in size from the actual opening. The final measurement is the height from the top of the septic tank to grade. If you have and questions about which size will work please call us anytime at 877-254-7093 or email us at info@aero- stream.com. We’ll confirm the correct model is selected as ordering the wrong model can be frustrating.
Tools Required:

HOW TO USE
-
Step 1: Locate septic tank
Using a probing tool, gently poke around the area of the septic tank until you locate the tank. A septic tank can be buried anywhere from a few inches to several feet below ground.
WARNING: Underground power and additional utility lines can pose a danger. If you have any concerns regarding underground lines on your property, reach out to your local Diggers Hotline. -
Step 2: Remove existing cover(s)
Excavate the dirt and rock to expose and remove all covers. Clear an area slightly larger than the actual opening to ensure adequate room to work while providing accurate measurements. -
Step 3: Take measurements.
Complete measurements “A” and “B” as noted in figures below. The size of the opening(s) must be less than or equal to 24”

Frequently Asked Questions
-
Can the riser be cut down or altered on-site?
No. The kits are only available in 3″ increments starting at 7″ tall up to 50″ tall. Call us for custom heights greater than 50”. -
Should the kit be positioned above, at, or below grade?
The height is matter of preference. The kits are watertight and can be setup with the cover above, at, or below grade. -
Do you remove the existing septic tank cover?
Generally, most homeowners remove the existing cover for ease of access in the future. Depending on the dimensions of the existing lid, this step may be required. Our kits provide a water-tight seal to the tank. The low-profile cover secures down with several screws & there’s also a secondary safety barrier included as well to ensure our kits provide safe access to the septic tank. -
Can I drive my lawn equipment and/or utility vehicle over the kit?
No. We recommend avoiding any substantial loads from machinery directly on the kit. The septic tank cover is designed for occasional foot traffic areas. For applications in high-traffic areas the cover should be inspected every 6 months for deterioration and replaced at least every 3 years. -
My opening is square, not circular, will this system still work?
Our kits were designed to fit most styles of opening shapes (e.g. round, square, rectangular, etc.) given the opening is within certain parameters. The base flange will fit up to a 24” circular or squared opening.
