Recognizing And Solving Septic Tank Problems

Under most circumstances, a septic or cesspool system should function for many years without any problems

. But sometimes sludge and waste can build up, causing septic tank problems.

If you are a resident of Long Island and if your home was built after 1972, your home should have a septic system and a secondary cesspool for overflow. This is a like a localized sewage treatment process when there are no available municipal sewers. This puts a lot of responsibility on your end in terms of maintenance. Following are some tips on sewage function including how to maintain it, how septic tank problems arise, and how to solve the problems.

First, get your cesspool cleaned once per year. In essence, this whole process depends on natural bacteria to break down solid waste. Things like disinfectants, toilet cleaners, bleach, and anti-bacterial hand soap can kill the needed bacteria (and you wondered why there are regulations on these products!). When the solids don't get broken down, they build up and clog the cesspool. In short, it needs to be cleaned.

In order to maintain your sewage management, conserve water and make sure any leaky plumbing is repaired. Make sure any rain is directed away from the structure.

In addition to the cleaning products you may put down the drain, be careful not to dispose of anything non-biodegradable down the drain or toilet. Kitchen grease is pretty common, but you should also avoid draining baby wipes or anything plastic.

Some signs of issues include but are not limited to slow draining of tubs and sinks, odors, clogs, and muddy spots in your yard.

There are a few options in solving the matter. You should call in the professionals who will give you the option of pumping, aeration, or drainage additives. Buying store bought pipe cleaner yourself will just make it more difficult for any company you hire, so ask for some sort of evaluation before you take matters into your own hands. Using these products may also just delay and increase the severity of the issue.

It is important to make smart choices over time and maintain than to deal with the costs and crises of neglecting this sort of system. If you have never had a cleaning done, do so today in order to save yourself future stress and inconvenience. Choose a company with lots of experience that will respond promptly, provide you with reasonable prices, and good customer service.
