The importance of Septic Inspection

Constant inspection is one of the key steps towards efficient maintenance of the septic tank.

Only a regular inspection of a septic tank can help detect problems before they become too complex to handle.  In addition to having a septic tank specialist inspect your tank, you should also learn about ways through which you can maintain and protect your septic tank to extend its lifespan. Please contact us at Metro Septic Pumping and we will schedule the right septic tank inspection for you.

Easy Septic Tank Maintenance Ideas for You

The better you maintain your septic tank, the more efficient it becomes and the less the risks of calling for expensive repairs. You should mark the location of the septic tank so it will be easier to find and maintain it. You should also ensure that the tank’s lid is closed always to keep animals and rainwater from falling inside the tank. You should inspect the lid for cracks and if any is found, please contact a septic system technician for repair or replacement.

You should also take the opportunity of locating your septic tank to check whether it requires septic tank pumping. You should also keep records each time your septic system is pumped and cleaned to remember the next schedule for such. It is ideal to have your septic tank pumped every 2-5 years. The duration of pumping should determine the frequency of septic tank cleaning and pumping. Ideally, Smaller tanks perhaps may require between 1and 2 years of regular pumping and cleaning to keep them working optimally.
