Things you need to know before cleaning a septic tank.

Septic tanks are those tanks that deal with domestic sewage and are connected to our home’s plumbing system. If you have a septic tank, then these are the things you must know before cleaning it.

What are the reasons behind cleaning septic tanks?

Septic tanks handle all the waste that comes from our home’s plumbing system, like water from the shower, when you flush the toilet, or water after using the washing machine. They are designed so that liquids, such as water, can be connected to the public sewer system or used to drain fields, but waste remains at the bottom of the tank.

Then the unwanted waste stored at the bottom of the tanks becomes sludge like material, and if these tanks are not cleaned on time, they might overflow in your yard.

Is it possible to clean septic tanks yourself?

There is no question about whether one can clean a septic tank or not. However, experts don’t recommend you do so. There are  many procedures you need to take care of before you clean the tank. One small mistake can damage your tank, improperly dispose of waste, or fail to clean your tank.

Although hiring a professional makes our work fast and easy, professionals have proper tools that are required throughout the cleaning process. Also  they have the proper knowledge and enough experience regarding the task.

How often do you have to clean your tank?

To keep your septic tank clean, you should have it pumped on a regular basis. This may raise a question regarding the time to clean your tanks.

They are affected by many factors, like the size of your tank, the size of our house, the number of people living there, the amount of waste from household products, and also whether you use any kind of bacteria in your tank or not.

A professional can estimate how frequently you need to clean your tank, considering all these factors.

How do you know your tank is due for cleaning?

Although septic tank experts provide you with an estimated routine to clean your tank, your tank also provides you with signs that it needs to be cleaned.

When your tank needs to be cleaned, water may start to drain slowly. You might also see water puddling in your feet while you shower.

Another sign that you may notice is the odor from the tank. You might notice the odors in your yard around the tank, or smells might travel through pipes and you might smell them in your drains.

Finally, if your tank is overdue for pumping, it may overflow You may see pooling water and waste near your yard. So, make sure your tank is located in a place where you can keep an eye on it.
