Understanding the Risks of Neglected Septic Systems

Neglecting septic tank maintenance can lead to significant problems for your home or property. Regular cleaning and inspections are essential to avoid the following issues:

1. Septic System Overflows: Backups can damage your property and lead to expensive cleanup costs.
2. Drain Field Failures: Clogs and overloading can compromise the drain field, resulting in soil contamination.
3. Environmental Hazards: Leaking septic systems can contaminate groundwater and harm local ecosystems.
4. Expensive Repairs: Small problems, when ignored, can escalate to costly system overhauls.

Septic Tank Maintenance: Pro Tips for Homeowners

Proper septic system care can extend its life and prevent breakdowns. Follow these maintenance tips to keep your system in top condition:

1. Be Cautious About What Goes Down the Drain: Avoid flushing non-biodegradable items like wipes, plastics, and grease.
2. Use Water Efficiently: Excess water strains the system, so repair leaks and spread laundry loads throughout the week.
3. Schedule Regular Inspections: Have a professional inspect your system every 3–5 years to catch potential problems early.
4. Pump the Tank on Schedule: Stick to the recommended timeline for pumping based on your household size and tank capacity.

Tank Conditioning

Septic tanks are complex, living ecosystems located under your property that are packed with bacteria, fungi, and plenty of other microbes. However, this is by design. These microbes are tasked with the job of processing the waste in your septic tank, turning it into water, carbon dioxide, and non-toxic materials that can be flushed out of your septic system over time. 

Once your tank is cleaned, these microbe levels need to be rebalanced, and the team at Chastain’s Septic Tank Services and Portable Toilets can do this for you. We know what a healthy tank environment looks like, and we will make sure your tank is set up to serve your property for the next several years.
