Hidden
How frequently should I have my septic tank pumped?
Most septic tanks require pumping every 3 to 5 years. However, the frequency varies according to tank size, household size, and water demand. We can complete regular inspections that help identify the best timetable.
Can I use household cleansers on my septic system?
It’s best to avoid using harsh chemicals, antibacterial soaps, and bleach in high quantities, since these might destroy beneficial microorganisms in your tank. If in doubt, reach out to a member of our team for your best options.
What should I avoid flushing or pouring down the drain?
It’s important to avoid flushing wipes, even if they say they’re “flushable,” feminine hygiene products, grease, oil, coffee grounds, paint, and chemicals down your drains.
How can I protect my septic system?
Beyond watching what you flush down the drain, it’s important to minimize tank overload, watch water consumption, and use septic-safe toilet paper and cleaning products. Additionally, minimize driving or building over the drain field and make sure to schedule regular maintenance.
What is a drainfield, and why is it important?
The drainfield is where your tank’s effluent filters into the soil. It eliminates pollutants naturally. If it becomes broken or blocked, your system may fail.
