How often do I need residential septic pumping?

There is no hard and fast answer to this question, since every home and residence is different. Many factors go into determining how often you should pump your tank , including the size of the tank, number of people in your household, how often you run your laundry, and even if you have a toilet running constantly. By working with our professionals, we can give you a customized guideline to follow.

How long does the pumping process take?

This will depend on the fullness of the tank and also the size of the tank. You can generally expect it to take anywhere from 30-90 minutes for the pumping process.

Will I know if my septic tank is full?

Not necessarily, but you will know if your tank starts to overflow. Look for signs of backflow, extra green and lush grass around the tank, and a foul odor. All those instances signal that you need to have your tank pumped as soon as possible.

Is there such a thing as pumping a tank too often?

While pumping too often will not hurt your tank or the system, it is not necessary and will not give you any benefits.

Do I need to use additives?

No. The waste products in the tank are all you need to provide your system with beneficial bacteria that breaks down the solids.
