A few easy tips can keep your septic tank running more smoothly. The first tip is to have your tank inspected every few years. If an experienced technician finds a problem early, it can be fixed before it causes more expensive issues. One problem they might be able to find is a buildup of solids, without sufficient drainage. If that problem occurs, the next step is septic tank pumping.
We have equipment that will clear out the backup, and we are more familiar with environmental requirements that will keep your home and family safe. One tip from the pros that can prevent the need for septic tank pumping is to avoid flushing anything other than waste down any drain. Diapers, feminine hygiene products, cigarette butts, and any other trash won’t break down properly, which causes the system to back up.
Another good tip to prevent septic tank problems is to avoid driving or parking on any part of the ground above the septic tank, pipes, or other parts of the system. Also, don’t build any construction (decks, patios, driveways) atop the septic system. Heavy objects can cause the tank and pipes to deteriorate faster, which can cause a threat to your home as well as the surrounding soil and groundwater. If you follow these tips, you can lessen the need to pump your septic system, and it will maintain more regular function.
