Septic tanks are underground chambers made of concrete, fiberglass, or plastic through which household wastewater flows for basic treatment. Solid waste from toilets, bathtubs, showers, and sinks drains into a tank for bacterial digestion that turns it to liquid. Wastewater then enters the soil absorption field where it is filtered through a series of subsurface pipes bedded in gravel. The septic tank removes most of the solid waste from the household wastewater so that the liquid can more easily flow through the soil absorption field without clogging or failing.URL :crownpumping.com

Getting your septic tank pumped regularly keeps it at its optimal working condition and reduces the risk of failure to separate wastewater from the drain field, preventing sewage overflow and potential damage to your plumbing fixtures and septic system components. It also prevents the release of contaminants into the environment that could endanger groundwater and nearby bodies of water.

The Dangers of Neglecting Septic Tank Pumping and Maintenance

How often your septic tank should be pumped depends on the size of the household and how much wastewater it generates. Larger households generate more waste and tend to fill their septic tanks faster than smaller ones. The tank’s capacity and sludge and scum levels also determine how often it needs to be pumped.

The best way to schedule a septic tank pump is to hire a professional septic service that offers flexible scheduling and competitive pricing. It’s also important to make sure the septic tank and manhole covers are accessible so that the septic technician can properly inspect the septic tank and determine its level of sludge and scum buildup.
