In most rural areas, septic systems function as both sewers and sewage treatment plants. All household waste is disposed of through the septic system. A properly functioning septic system is essential to your family’s health, the value of your property, and the health of the local environment.
Goebel recommends you service and empty your septic tank once every three to five years. The frequency can vary depending on usage and how many people live in your household.
When a Goebel septic expert arrives on the scene for a maintenance service they will go through our systematic process to make sure your septic system is working like it should.
What is the difference between septic pumping and septic cleaning?
Answer
Septic pumping involves removing the liquid and floating solids from the septic tank, while septic cleaning is a more thorough process that removes all sludge and buildup from the bottom of the tank. Cleaning is a more comprehensive service and may be necessary when sludge accumulation becomes excessive.
What are the signs that my septic tank needs pumping?
Answer
Common signs include slow drains, frequent backups, gurgling noises in plumbing, foul odors around the septic tank or drain field, and pools of water forming in the yard near the system. If any of these signs appear, it is a good indication that the tank is full and requires service.
What can I do to extend the life of my septic system?
Answer
You can extend the life of your system by scheduling regular pumpings, conserving water, and avoiding non-biodegradable waste.
What are the benefits of regular septic tank maintenance?
Answer
Routine maintenance helps prevent backups, extends the lifespan of your system, ensures efficient operation, and reduces the risk of costly repairs or drain field failures.
Can I use additives to reduce the need for septic pumping?
Answer
While some additives claim to break down waste and reduce the need for pumping, they are not a substitute for regular maintenance. Some additives can even disrupt the natural bacteria balance in the tank, making the system less effective.
Can I pump my septic tank myself?
Answer
No, septic pumping requires specialized equipment and should only be performed by a licensed professional. Attempting to pump the tank yourself can be dangerous and may result in improper disposal, leading to environmental contamination.
