Septic Health Tips
Septic Health Tips

Have your septic tank cleaned by a knowledgeable proffessional every 2-3 years.

Never use a garbage disposal, the disposal and the septic system are not at all compatible

If your tank is over 15 years old, have it inspected for baffle deterioration
(sooner if you have a water conditioner)

Have risers installed for better access

Never use any septic additives such as Rid-X, Septic Helper,CCLS, etc.  Save your money and have your tank pumped periodically.

Never use Anti-Bacterial Soaps

Never use thick, double ply toilet paper.  Use the Cheap thin stuff, as much as you want. (90% of the back-ups we see are caused by "Septic Safe" Charmin)

Don't throw feminine or masculine products down the drain

Never dump paint, oil, or any other chemicals down your drain.  Don't clean paint brushes in your sink!

Never try to enter your tank, no matter how tempting it might be, the hydrogen sulfide gas is waiting for you and it will win!
