You have to stop thinking of your cesspool as something that’s just full of crap and start looking at it as a friend. A partner. Someone in need… in need of a proper cleaning! That’s right, your cesspool can handle only so much of your crap and they need a proper cleaning every now and again. In this article, we’ll tell you more about this phenomenon.
Pumping your septic tank or cesspool is recommended every three to five years to prevent public health hazards and costly repairs. When the enzymes in the septic tank that break down materials are interrupted, more solids collect and cause a backup. Overflowing tanks, unpleasant odors from drains and toilets, and sluggish flow are the results of this.
Human waste, food waste, and other garbage might be flushed into the earth as ground water if an unpumped system's solids flowed directly into the drain field. Because of this, the grass could die and a foul odor could develop.
Every year, you should check your tank and pipes to see if they've sustained any damage and to see whether it's time to pump. If you want to know when your septic tank needs to be pumped, you can either wait until it becomes a public hazard, which is not a good idea because it can cause damage, or you can obtain an inspection.
An experienced sewage contractor, like us at Mid Suffolk Cesspool, will inspect your tank for leaks and cracks, as well as measure the sludge level to ensure it is at an optimal level. The contractor will advise pumping when the amount of solids in the tank reaches 25% to 35% of the total volume. It is important to get frequent inspections so you know when to pump your tank. This will avoid expensive damages.
A clean cesspool for one. This makes it so that when good ol’ Uncle Ted has too much turkey, his speedy exit to the restroom doesn’t cause the house to collapse. It would make for a great story, and Uncle Ted probably deserves it for pinching that lollipop from you when you were seven, but there are better ways of getting even–ways that don’t endanger your house and family.
