Frequently Asked Questions
How often should I pump my septic tank?
Residential septic tanks require pumping services every three to five years. The actual timeline for each septic tank depends on its type, size, water usage, and the number of people in your home. Septic tanks are technically always full, but the amount of sludge determines whether it needs pumping or not. In general, your tank needs pumping if more sludge represents more than 25% of the tank’s liquid, if the top of the sludge is within 12 inches of the outlet, or if the bottom layer is within six inches of the bottom of the outlet.
What are the signs that my septic system is failing?
Without proper maintenance or repairs, your septic tank may show signs of failure. These signs include:
- Slow drains from bathtubs, showers, and sinks
- Gurgling sounds in the plumbing system
- Backups in toilets, drains, or sinks
- Standing water or damp spots in your yard
- Foul odors around the septic tank or near your plumbing fixtures
- Spongy and lush grass around the septic tank or drainfield
How do I know if I need septic tank repair or replacement?
Septic tank repairs are meant for leaks, clogs, damaged pipes, or malfunctioning pipes, or other components. Depending on the problem’s severity and other factors, septic repairs are usually more cost-effective and less disruptive than a septic tank replacement and can extend your system’s overall longevity.
Septic tank replacement involves removing and replacing the existing tank as well as potentially replacing the sewage lines, baffles, and other parts. Replacement may be necessary if the tank is too damaged to justify a repair or if it doesn’t meet local septic codes. A failed drainfield may also need replacement if the soil is too compacted or saturated to adequately absorb effluent.
What can I do to maintain my septic system and prevent problems?
Routine professional maintenance, pumping, and proper care prevent problems with your septic system. In addition to scheduling regular inspections and pumping, follow these practices to care for your septic system:
- Use water mindfully — avoid straining by using multiple appliances or fixtures at once.
- Don’t dump non-biodegradable materials.
- Avoid draining cooking grease or fat into your sinks.
- Limit the number of solids you drain.
- Only use mild cleaners — harsh chemicals can damage your pipes and disturb the bacteria your septic system relies on.
Proper installation also dictates the function of your septic system. Renovations or remodels, changes in household size, increased water usage, or old age may limit its function and increase the risk of failures. In some cases, upgrading to a system with increased capacity may be necessary.
What does septic tank pumping involve?
Septic tank pumping begins with an inspection to determine sludge levels and check for damage or leaks. The technician accesses the tank via the lids and uses a specialized vacuum and truck to pump out its contents. Following necessary cleaning, they’ll perform a final inspection and reassemble the tank.
Can a cracked or damaged septic tank be repaired?
Small septic tank cracks can often be repaired. Repair feasibility depends on the tank materials, such as concrete vs. fiberglass, and the extent of the damage.
What are enzyme treatments and how can they benefit my septic system?
Enzyme treatments are additives for your septic system. Regular treatments may promote a healthier septic environment by breaking down waste more efficiently, helping to reduce odors, improve tank function, and prolong intervals between required pumping.
