With Spring arriving and clean up begining outside, don’t forget to clean the filter in your septic tank if applicable. Not all septic systems have a filter but if it has been installed in the year 2000 or more recent, a filter was required. It is recommend to clean your filter at least twice a year. When its time for a tank cleaning, give me a call/text.

Public health and environmental agencies recommend that septic tank users have their systems checked each year. Septic tank service specialists are trained to assess the piping, mechanisms, drain field, and tanks to ensure the system is functioning correctly.

It’s recommended that you keep a detailed record concerning your septic system and any and all work that’s been performed on it. This should include all inspections, pumping, repairs, and any other maintenance to the system.

Be careful using anti-bacterial soaps and detergents in your daily routines. Their chemical makeup destroys the bacteria in your septic system that helps to breakdown waste materials. Using regular soap and rubbing thoroughly will do the trick and not inhibit the septic system.

If you live in an area where specialized septic systems are required for environmental reasons, you really should consult with an expert in septic care so that you know what is required to properly maintain that system from the start.

Low levels of sewage in a septic tank indicate a leak. Before the leak can be repaired, the tank needs to be pumped out and cleaned in order to give it a thorough inspection.

Did you know that the average lifespan of a septic tank is 20-30 years? That’s if they are maintained and regularly cleaned. A septic tank can also last shorter than that due to negligence and lack of maintenance.

Aerobic septic systems (aka Aerobic Treatment Units, or ATUs) operate through the introduction of oxygen (fine air bubbles) into the system, promoting the growth of beneficial, aerobic bacteria to improve the treatment of effluvia.
