How Often Does Your Septic Tank Need Pumping?

If you have had flooding, your septic system has damage, you have had chemicals introduced to the tank that may have killed the healthy bacteria in the system, or you are producing more waste than usual, you may want to opt for tank pumping and cleaning more often.
Problems That Can Occur If You Don't Pump Your Septic Tank When It's Full
Why is it so important to pump your septic tank? Septic tank overflow can be a very serious problem. Sewage will leak out onto your property and get into your groundwater. Bacteria, phosphorous and nitrogen from the contaminated water can create serious health hazards for you, your family, your pets, plants and possibly your neighbors as well. The odor can be intolerable, and cleaning up the mess will be time-consuming and expensive.
