Most homeowners forget about their drain field—until it’s too late. During summer, increased household water usage and drier soil can stress your septic system. Keeping the drain field in top shape is key to avoiding backups and odors.
Here’s how to help your drain field stay functional and stink-free:
- Keep heavy vehicles off the area
- Redirect sprinklers and gutters away from the field
- Trim back invasive roots from trees and shrubs
Also, poor ventilation can contribute to indoor septic odors. If you're noticing smells around sinks or toilets, it may be time to check the venting.
