FAQs

How often should I have my septic tank emptied?

You should have your tank pumped every 3-5 years, depending on its size and the number of people in your household. A smaller tank or a larger family will require more frequent emptying.

What happens during a septic tank emptying?

A specialised contractor will pump out the accumulated sludge and scum from the bottom and top of the tank. The process involves removing the solids, but the watery effluent containing beneficial bacteria is often returned to the tank to maintain its proper functioning.

What should I avoid flushing down the toilet to prevent problems?

Do not flush anything except human waste and toilet paper, including items such as diapers, wipes, feminine hygiene products, paper towels, cooking grease, or chemicals. These items can clog the system and cause serious issues.

What are the signs of a septic system problem that might require emptying?

Look for slow-draining sinks and toilets, foul odours around your home, or standing water and unusually lush patches of grass in your yard, especially near the leaching field.
