• Follow The Time Table: Every septic tank eventually needs to be pumped. Having a timetable will help you know when it’s time to service your tank again so that you won’t push it to its limit. Your timetable is based on several factors, including how many people live in your house and if you have a garbage disposal, dishwasher, or washing machine.
• Know The Last Pump Date: To ensure you’re on the right timetable for your septic system, it’s important to know when the last date of service was. Keep an accurate record of your septic’s service appointments.
• Check Before Flushing: Septic systems have certain rules to make sure their life is extended. If you have a septic system, be careful what goes down your drain. Don’t flush excessive toilet paper, feminine products, or food down the toilet, and limit what goes down your kitchen sink, including harsh chemicals.
