Frequently Asked Questions
How often should my septic tank be pumped?
It’s recommended to pump your septic tank every 3 to 5 years, depending on household size and water usage. Regular pumping prevents system failures and extends the lifespan of your septic system.
What are the signs that my septic system needs repair?
Common indicators include slow drains, gurgling sounds in pipes, unpleasant odors near the drain field, and pooling water in your yard. If you notice any of these, it’s advisable to contact a professional promptly.
Can I use household chemicals with a septic system?
Excessive use of household chemicals like bleach and drain cleaners can disrupt the beneficial bacteria in your septic tank, hindering waste breakdown. Opt for septic-safe products to maintain system health.
How long does a septic system typically last?
With proper maintenance, a septic system can last between 20 to 30 years or more. Regular inspections and timely repairs are key to maximizing its lifespan.
What should I avoid flushing into my septic system?
Avoid flushing non-biodegradable items such as wipes, feminine hygiene products, and cigarette butts. These can cause clogs and lead to system failures.
