Septic Tank Care for Condominiums and Apartment Buildings

Regular Septic Tank Inspections

As a septic tank owner, your priority should be scheduling regular inspections. This doesn’t have to be very frequent; once a year will be enough. This will ensure that you know the tank's condition and drainage pipes. Any unusual activity can easily be detected by professional technicians who will help you save time, money, and energy in the future. The inspection process is simple. Technicians first check the lawns to ensure there is no obvious sign of tank leakage. They can then continue with their dye tests to see their drainage efficiency. Lastly, after assessing the general health of your septic tank, the technicians will notify the homeowner or landlord of everything and make sure you stay updated.

Regular Septic Tank Pumping

The primary goal of septic tank pumping is to remove any solids that may have accumulated in your septic tank. This means that the solids at the bottom of the tank and other grease will be removed so that your septic system can start working efficiently again. Since bacteria play the primary role in breaking down waste, homeowners often think that there is no need for this service. However, the solids accumulate over time and bacteria only break down half of it. The other half will eventually build up within the tank and can harm the system long-term, forcing you to get a septic tank repair service.
