Maintenance is key to keeping your system in the best condition.
By neglecting your septic system, you’re putting yourself at risk for a backup, which can lead to thousands of dollars in damage.
These key factors go into determining how often you need to have your system pumped out:
- The size of your septic tank
- Is it a year-round residence or just part time
- The number of people living in your home
During a septic pumping, the technician will do a visual inspection to determine if the level of water in the tank is correct. If the water is too high that can be an indication of a failed drainfield. If the water is too low and the house is currently being lived in there could be damage to the tank.
Did you know?
Your septic system should be pumped out every 3-4 years, depending on the number of people living in the household, for optimal performance and system life.
If you have a septic system that was designed and it fails after 15-20 years, you do not need to have it all taken up and replaced. It can be fixed at about 1/3 the cost of a new system by having the drain field fixed.
Have A Septic Pump?
Have a septic pump? Some systems have a septic pump because the drainfield is at a higher elevation than the septic tank and so the pump is needed to lift the water to the drainfield. When the pump stops working, the septic waste will back up into the home. Central Maine Septic can troubleshoot the pump, make repairs, or replace the pump if it’s not repairable.
We believe our experience and commitment to customer service makes us your source for all of your septic system needs.
