Pump Your Tank On Schedule
The best way to maintain a septic system is to periodically remove the accumulation of solid waste inside the tank. Experts recommend a routine maintenance pump and inspection every 2.5 to 3 years, or more frequently if your system receives higher-than-normal usage. We perform a visual inspection during every pumping appointment, so any developing issues are caught early — before they become expensive problems.
One of the leading causes of plumbing blockages and septic system failures is "flushable" wipes. Despite the name, these products do not break down and will clog both your lines and the tank interior over time. Your tank relies on its own bacteria system to break down waste naturally, so it is important to use septic-safe toilet paper and avoid flushing heavy chemicals, paints, medications, feminine products, or any other items that will not break down inside the tank.
Maintain Your Drain Field
Many products on the market claim that adding them to your septic tank will break down waste and eliminate the need for pumping. There is no research supporting these claims, and in some cases these additives can do more harm than good. The most reliable way to keep your system functioning properly is consistent attention to what you flush, paired with regular pumping.
Be Cautious With Septic "Additives"
Knowing exactly where your drain field is located on your property is essential to protecting it. Leach lines and seepage pits should never be driven over, and trees or invasive vegetation should never be planted nearby, since roots can perforate pipes and cause significant, costly damage. If you are unsure where your drain field is located or what type of system you have, our team can locate it for you and walk you through proper care and maintenance.
Septic Tank Inspections
Regular inspection of both the septic tank and drain field is the best way to catch small issues early, optimize system performance, and extend the overall life of your septic system.
