Ever wonder what happens when there’s a blockage in a sewer line? CCUA uses a Vac-Con track camera that allows our staff to navigate through the lines and view the blockage for efficient removal. DJ, our Mechanic and Sewer TV Inspector, is the expert on all things Vac-Con! Watch his video to learn more.

IMPORTANT NOTICE: CCUA is aware of the sulfur smell out of the Oakleaf area. Our team has been working to investigate this concern for several days. Upon final inspection, we have determined the sulfur smell is not a result of any CCUA equipment or infrastructure. We are remaining engaged as needed to protect public health and safety.

DID YOU KNOW: The average leaky toilet can waste about 200 gallons per day 🚽. Customer Service can provide you with leak detection tablets to test your toilets for leaks. Taking advantage of calling us first and checking for leaks on your own can save you unnecessary and often expensive plumbing bills that may not be necessary.   CCUA customers can also sign up for our free water conservation assessment by contacting Customer Service at (904) 272-5999.

DID YOU KNOW? You should never pour Fats, Oils, and Grease (FOG) down your drain or toilet. When FOG is washed down the drain system, it cools and forms thick grease that mixes with other solids which can result in sewer line clogs. Here are some tips on what to do instead!   To learn more about CCUA’s recommendations on FOG, please go to the policy on our website: https://lnkd.in/eD82VpVA .

Thank you to CCUA’s Wellness Committee for supplying staff with water bottles and electrolytes to keep them hydrated in the field. We know how hot Florida summers can be when you’re outside in these temperatures. Stay hydrated!
