FAQs

Per our experts, septic tanks should be pumped at least every two to three years. The frequency of septic pumping depends on the size of the tank and the size of the household, but we recommend that you never go more than three years without pumping your septic tank.

If your septic tank is equipped with an effluent filter, our team recommends that the filter be cleaned every three to four months. When we conduct our septic pumping service, we clean the filter as well. This is also a separate service that we offer.

We do not recommend adding any treatment products to your septic system. Your system takes advantage of natural biological processes that keep it working efficiently. There is no need to add anything to your septic system.

Having your septic tank pumped regularly prevents many issues. However, if you notice plumbing that is draining slowly, not draining at all, or making a gurgling noise as it drains, you may have a problem with your septic system. Call us for additional guidance and more information on our septic tank cleaning work.

It is often assumed that unwanted smells in the house are from the septic system. If you notice an odor, check that your drain traps are not dry at infrequently used points in the house, such as a slop sink. Also, if you have treatment systems for your drinking water, make sure they are functioning properly.
