Did you know that a septic system can actually help the environment? It accomplishes this by recharging local water tables over time.
When you arrange to have your septic tank pumped regularly and cleaned on a periodic schedule you’re making smart choices. These affordable services help protect big-ticket items such as the tank and drain field.
When we inspect your septic tank, we will assess everything from sludge and water levels to the overall condition of your system. This will help to identify any issues and ensure that your system is functioning optimally.
The capacity of a septic tank refers to the actual volume of wastewater (including scum and sludge) it is able to hold. Required minimum capacity is typically based on the number of bedrooms in the dwelling, as well as other factors.
Dishwashers send a surge of water to the septic system, but it's usually not enough to disturb the operation of a tank that's functioning properly. You can reduce the load by scraping loose food off of the dishes before washing them.
A buildup of lush green weeds or excessive algae in lakes or streams near your home may indicate that you have a problem with your septic system that needs to be addressed right away. This may be a sign that nutrient-rich septic system waste is leaching into the water supply.
