• Never flush kitchen grease down the sink or toilet; your septic system is designed to handle household waste and paper products only!
• Fix leaks as soon as they happen. Healthy plumbing is the key to a healthy septic system.
• Have your septic system cleaned/pumped out every 3-5 years.
• Don’t overuse anti-bacterial soaps and cleaners.
• Compost food waste instead of using a garbage disposal.
• Take shorter showers and limit your water use in general.
• Don’t plant trees, shrubs or any other plants with a dense root structure near your septic field.

Common Septic Issues

If you’re experiencing a septic issue, there are three common problems to be aware of:

• Overflow: Septic tanks need to be pumped every 3-5 years. Gurgling or slow draining sinks and toilets can indicate your tank has reached its limit.
• Root intrusion: Tree or plant roots can damage pipes and make your drain field less efficient. Drainage issues and standing water in your yard are common signs of a problem.
• Rainwater leaking into tank: If your tank overflows frequently, it may be because of a leak or design flaw that is allowing rainwater to enter.

Don’t Ignore Septic Problems

When your septic tank isn’t working properly, in addition to being unpleasant, it can cause bacteria to enter into your groundwater. This can lead to a number of health complications for your family, pets or livestock.
