When You Need Septic Tank Pumping
Did you know that around a third of Florida’s population uses a septic tank for their home waste system? Septic tanks are an efficient, affordable option for many homes, but things can quickly go wrong if the tank isn’t properly maintained.
That’s where septic tank system pumping comes in.
Pumping your septic system is important for ensuring the long life of your drain field by ensuring that it is free of anything but liquid waste. With proper maintenance and regular pumpings, your tank could last you up to 20 years.
The EPA recommends that, at a max, your septic system should be pumped every 3-5 years. We think that time frame is a little risky though. Things can easily go wrong without detection in that extended span of time, but the longer you wait the harder it is to repair. It may even ruin the system. That’s why Flush & Go Drain Cleaning recommends getting your tank pumped every 2-3 years instead. That way we can detect and fix problems faster, before the problem makes a mess.
How Your Septic Tank Works
If your home operates on a septic tank, you should know the basics of how it works. A septic tank is an affordable, individual alternative to a traditional sanitary sewer. Its main purpose is to trap solids and only allow the flow of liquids into the drain field. Every few years, the tank fills more and more and reaches its limit of what it can hold. That is when it needs to be pumped, so that it can continue its regular draining cycle.
Drain fields, if damaged, however, can quickly become major problems. The main cause of these problems is when solids are forced into the drain field, which is meant to be liquid only.
When this happens, you’ll need expert help right away to fix the problem before it becomes any bigger. That’s when you should call Flush & Go Drain Cleaning. We help homeowners throughout Central Florida keep their septic tanks under control, so that they can rest easy throughout their day.
