Septic septic service treat and dispose of the wastewater from the toilets, sinks, tubs, showers, dishwashers and laundry rooms in a home. Wastewater contains germs and pollutants that are harmful to human health and the environment, so septic systems need special care and maintenance to ensure they operate properly.
Septic system installation starts with a licensed site evaluator checking out the property and doing tests to see how well the soil can treat wastewater. The evaluator will then submit the results to a licensed engineer to create the septic design for the lot. Once the design has been approved, the construction process can begin.
Septic Tank Pumping 101: Everything You Need to Know to Keep Your System Functiona
The septic tank collects the discharge from household plumbing and allows solid wastes to settle or float. The heavier solids settle to the bottom of the septic tank where they are broken down by bacteria to form sludge. The lighter solids, including fats and grease, float on the surface to form a layer of scum. The septic system distribution box distributes the partially treated wastewater evenly to the drainfield trenches.
Keeping a regular schedule for pumping the septic tank is an important part of septic system maintenance. Pumping removes the sludge and solid waste that builds up in the tank, which keeps it from reaching its recommended maximum capacity.
A good rule of thumb is to get the septic tank pumped when the solids make up two-thirds or more of the total volume in the tank. Maintaining a regular maintenance schedule can also help extend the life of a septic system.
