Most households should have the tank pumped every three to five years. However, frequency depends on tank size, number of people, and water use. If you use a garbage disposal or have a smaller tank, you may need pumping more often. A local contractor can inspect your system and recommend a schedule.
Avoid putting grease, wipes, or harsh chemicals down drains. Conserve water by fixing leaks and using efficient fixtures. Have the tank pumped on a regular schedule. Keep heavy vehicles and trees away from the drain field. These steps can help prevent costly repairs and extend the life of your system.
