When wastewater flows into your septic system, solid waste settles at the bottom while lighter materials float to the top. Over time, these solids can build up and reduce the available space for new wastewater to enter. This can lead to clogs and backups. Getting your septic tank pumped regularly prevents this buildup and ensures the septic system is able to handle household waste efficiently and without failure.
During a Septic system service, your technician will use a muckrake to break up the sludge and scum in the tank. They will also check the septic tank baffles and dividing wall for damage and wear. Additionally, the technician will watch for backflow from the septic tank outlet pipe throughout the pumping process. Significant backflow indicates a problem with your septic system that needs attention.
