Septic Specific Facts You Should Know

When to Pump Your Septic Tank

Although many septic service providers recommend pumping every three to five years, every septic system is different, and several factors need to be considered. These factors include the size of your household, number of toilets, the volume of solids in wastewater, total wastewater generated, and septic tank size. The experts at Septic Blue inspect and account for all these factors before recommending a septic tank pumping and cleaning schedule. Other septic systems will require to be pumped more frequently than the recommended three to five years.

How a Septic Tank is Pumped

Septic tank pumping is a straightforward process where a professional uses specialized industry tools like a vacuum truck to efficiently pump the effluent from your system. The vacuum truck will then fill your septic tank with clean water from its supply tank, allowing your tank to maintain a safe sludge level. Once the sludge is completely pumped out, we will haul the waste to a waste management facility or a landfill, depending on the local codes. We ensure that the wastewater is treated before being released into the environment.

Caring for Your Septic System

The first most crucial step is to schedule routine maintenance checks with a professional septic service company. This helps to identify potential damages before they get out of hand, forcing you to replace your septic tank. If you want your septic system to last long and provide reliable service, you need to check for signs of a potential problem. Some of the signs to look out for include standing water near the tank, foul odors, and many others. As soon as you detect a deterioration in the performance of your septic system, you need to hire an expert to inspect and repair possible damage.
