How to Extend Your Septic System’s Lifespan

Do you use an in-sink garbage disposal regularly? 

Do you know how to properly maintain your septic drain field? 

There are a few things you can do to properly maintain your septic system to extend its lifespan: 

• Inspect and pump frequently - knowing how often your system needs to be pumped and inspected will prevent clogging and wear on pipes. 
• Use water efficiently - when your household conserves water, less water enters your system, reducing the risk of malfunction 
• Properly dispose of waste - save your system by knowing what can’t be flushed or poured down the drain!
• Maintain your drain field - Leaving the area above and around your drain field clear will prevent the weight from damaging your system.
