Septic tank preventative maintenanceThere are very few
homeowners who ever remember the importance of regular septic tank
maintenance; doing so is a good practice that helps in preventing
sewage backup, overflow as well as helping in the prevention of
related health hazards. In the ideal sense, septic tank draining
should be done every three to four years. This is normally a
manageable procedure that is provided by septic pumping companies.
As a homeowner, your responsibility is to learn the way the entire
system works so you can notice a problem as soon as it occurs.
Nipping problems in the bud ensures a hassle free operation. There
are several things you need to know regarding septic
maintenance.Preventive measures: Avoid overloading the system by
using water sparingly; you want to avoid using a washing machine or
dishwasher when someone else is running the shower. You should also
make sure that food remnants are not dumped down the drain because
they will definitely clog up the tank. The other aspect of
preventative maintenance is drain cleaning but while at it, you
must avoid using toxic cleaners or pouring greases and oils into
the system as well. It is also important to avoid emptying any type
of debris into the drainage; such things as diapers, tissues,
condoms or cigarette butts will definitely sludge your septic tank.
Always ensure that septic tank pumping is done regularly. Too many
detergents: Unknown to most people, the excessive use of detergents
or cleaners has a negative impact on septic tanks. This is because
the chemicals used in the products will kill some important
bacteria that are found inside the tank; this bacterium helps in
the bio digestion of waste. When doing sewage treatment you need to
choose the products you are using carefully; enzyme based products
are usually the best to use but they should also be used
sparingly.Septic tank preventative maintenanceKeep roots away: You
should avoid having trees and shrubs growing around the drain field
because their deep roots are likely to clog the system. You should
also ensure that all spouts outside the home are directed away from
the septic tanks direction to prevent flooding.Awareness: You must
also avoid having any structures built on top of the drain field
and you should also not park your car above it because the compress
the soil and prevent proper drainage. A regular program of drain
cleaning will also prevent the drain from backing up, the best way
to maintain your sewer line is by maintaining cleanliness in the
surrounding area; prevention is better than cure.Septic tank
