Septic Tank System Maintenance Tips

  • Watch your water usage – Using high-efficiency toilets, faucets, and appliances helps limit how much water enters your septic system. Fixing leaks right away also keeps your tank from filling up faster than it should.
  • Limit what goes down the drain – Your septic system can only handle so much solid waste. Avoid flushing wipes, feminine products, or anything that doesn’t break down easily. Try to stick to toilet paper only to help prevent clogs and backups.
  • Keep water away from the drain field – Make sure roof downspouts and landscaping don’t direct extra water onto your drain field. Too much moisture can overload the system and stop it from working properly.
  • Don’t drain pools or hot tubs into the system – Large amounts of water entering at once can overwhelm the tank. Always drain pools and spas into a safe area in your yard, away from the septic components.
  • Avoid dumping harsh chemicals – Chemical cleaners can kill off the good bacteria your tank needs to break down waste. Choose septic-friendly products and avoid pouring chemicals down sinks or toilets.
