The summer heat is here—and with it, the potential for some seriously unpleasant septic system smells. If you've ever caught a whiff of something foul while enjoying a warm breeze through open windows, you're not alone.
Fortunately, with a few simple steps, you can keep things running smoothly and odor-free:
- Pump regularly: Septic tanks should be pumped every 3–5 years to prevent buildup.
- Be mindful of what you flush: Avoid non-biodegradables and harsh chemicals.
- Support your system with bacteria additives: These can help keep waste breakdown efficient, especially in older systems.
Don’t let your summer memories include septic smells. Learn how a little maintenance can go a long way in protecting your system and your nose here.
