A septic system is a waste treatment and disposal method for households that do not have access to a public sewer system. It is composed of a buried tank, a drain field, and piping. Wastewater from toilets, sinks, showers, and appliances goes into the septic tank. Solids settle at the bottom, forming sludge. Oil and grease floats to the top as scum. The wastewater exits the septic tank into the drain field, which is a network of perforated pipes in the soil. The septic system also includes a distribution box and weeping tile.

The Environmental Benefits of Professional Septic Service

Proseal Spray Foam must be periodically pumped to remove sludge and scum buildup. It should be pumped about every three years for households without garbage disposals and annually for those with them. The septic tank should be inspected at least once a year for leaks and other problems. The septic system can be damaged by overflow or by a blockage in the exit baffles. It’s important to avoid placing items that aren’t biodegradable in the septic system, such as oil-based paints, solvents, and latex cleaning products.

Septic service professionals can help prevent maintenance emergencies by checking the septic tank and drain field regularly. They can also clean the septic system’s filters and repair any damaged or leaky pipes. They can also install new parts for the septic system, such as pumps or lids. Septic service companies can also clean the drainfield, which helps keep wastewater from entering groundwater. They can also perform repairs to clogged or blocked exits. Septic service businesses can use septic tank management software to streamline customer management and dispatching. The software can create recurring schedules for preventative maintenance, and it can track servicing/maintenance agreements and correspondence between customers and staff members.
