What is a septic tank, and how does it work?

A septic tank is an underground wastewater treatment system that collects, treats, and disposes of household sewage. It separates solids from liquids, allowing bacteria to break down organic matter. The treated water then flows into a drainage field, where it naturally filters through the soil. This system is commonly used in areas without access to municipal sewage lines, providing an efficient and self-contained solution for waste disposal.

How often should a septic tank be pumped?

Septic tanks should typically be pumped every 3 to 5 years, depending on household size, water usage, and tank capacity. Regular pumping prevents sludge buildup, ensuring your system runs efficiently. If neglected, excessive solids can block pipes or overflow into the drain field, causing costly damage. A professional inspection can help determine when pumping is needed based on the tank’s condition and sludge levels.

How can I tell if my septic tank is full?

Common signs that your septic tank is full include slow-draining sinks and toilets, gurgling sounds from drains, bad odours, sewage backups, and overly lush grass around the tank area. A full tank may also cause pooling water near the drain field. However, these symptoms could indicate other septic issues, so a professional inspection is the best way to confirm if pumping or repairs are needed.
