Emergency Tank Pumping
Septic emergencies can happen at any time, so don’t hesitate to call us any time you need urgent services. Major clogs and backups put your business and everyone inside it at risk due to the hazards of sewage and wastewater sitting in your sinks, toilets, and other areas of your property. Double JP Septic is always available to provide emergency septic tank pumping when you need it.
Importance of Septic Tank Cleaning
Though it’s less talked about than pumping, septic tank cleaning is no less important to the health of your septic system. A thorough cleaning appointment clears everything out of your tank, even the bottom-most layers of gunk built up over the years, and resets the beneficial bacteria of your system. Removing the solids from the bottom of your tank decreases the likelihood of future backups and gives our experts the opportunity to assess the integrity of your tank.
How Often Should I Get My Tank Cleaned?
Unlike your yearly tank pumping appointment, experts recommend a full cleaning every three to five years. However, your commercial tank could need more frequent cleanings depending on its size, your industry, and level of use. Certain types of septic tanks also need more frequent attention, such as aerobic septic systems. Regular cleanings help prolong the life of your tank, improve its performance, and prevent costly backups and emergencies by keeping the sludge levels manageable.
Our Commercial Septic Tank Cleaning Process
Inspection
Every septic tank cleaning appointment begins with a thorough inspection. We simultaneously check the tank for any damage, leaks, corrosion, leach field clogs, and other septic tank repair needs, as well as ensure a safe environment for our team to complete the cleaning process.
Liquid and Sludge Removal
We start by removing the liquid and any floating debris from the tank using a long, vacuum-style hose. Next, we tackle the sludge. Our goal is to restore your tank’s interior, which is why we often employ hydro-jetting with a high-pressure nozzle to fully break apart the compacted sludge at the bottom and clean the walls and ceiling.
Leach Field Lines and Filters Cleaned
The drain or leach field connects to your septic system to filter water from the tank to keep the water level under control. Unfortunately, clogs in the lines prevent proper drainage and result in system backups. While cleaning your tank, we also clean your leach field lines to ensure everything drains as it should.
Final Cleaning and Disinfection
To finish up, we use a vacuum method to suction out any remaining dirt and sediment, then apply an antibacterial spray or liquid bleach to fully disinfect the septic tank. UV radiation is also employed to eliminate any remaining harmful bacteria without affecting the future growth of beneficial bacteria essential to the tank. Once this is complete, the tank is fully drained, dried, and ready for use again. We’ll provide a detailed report of our work, any repair suggestions, and future maintenance tips to keep your system healthy in between cleanings.
