Follow These Guidelines to Decide if Your Tank is Ready to Be Emptied

Keep in mind how often your septic tank needs to be emptied by following these guidelines:

1.     Size of your tank – Don’t know the size of your tank? A professional can come out to inspect your tank and let you know the size. 

2.     House size and number of family members – Obviously a bigger house needs a bigger septic tank, and a smaller home needs a smaller tank. The number of people who reside in your home is also a contributing factor. More people produce more waste which will affect the frequency at which you need to clean your septic tank.

3.     Consider the total wastewater generated – This includes laundry, dishwashing, and showers. Reducing your water consumption will reduce the chance of clogs and future backups.
