Frequently asked questions
How often should a septic tank be pumped?
Most tanks need pumping every three to five years, depending on household size, tank size, and water use. A professional can recommend a schedule.
What are signs of a failing drain field?
Soggy soil, odors, slow drains, and standing water over the drain field are common signs. The system should be inspected before it backs up.
Can I use a garbage disposal with a septic system?
It adds solids and grease to the tank, which can increase pumping frequency. Use it sparingly and avoid pouring grease down the drain.
Why is my well water pressure low?
A failing pump, clogged filter, pressure tank issue, or sediment can cause low pressure. A well professional can test the system.
