Jacksonville Septic Tank Pumping is an onsite wastewater treatment and disposal system that processes and purifies household waste (effluent) from blackwater (toilet waste) and greywater (kitchen sink, bathtub, and laundry waste). Wastewater enters the septic tank for primary treatment, where bacteria digest organic material. Then it exits the tank into the leach field or drain field for secondary treatment, where soil bacteria complete the digestion and purification process. Regular septic tank pumping is essential to prevent clogs, backups, and damage to the septic system, sewage system, and your property.
If you are having problems with slow draining, gurgling sounds in your plumbing, or sewage odors entering your home, it could be a sign that it’s time to get your septic tank pumped. Having your septic tank pumped regularly prevents the buildup of solid waste and sludge, which protects your septic system, reduces costs, and extends its lifespan.
How Jacksonville Septic Tank Pumping Improves System Efficiency
Septic tank pumping should be done every three to five years. It’s recommended that homeowners keep track of the date their septic tank was pumped and schedule service at the appropriate interval.
