Is Pumping Your Tank What You Really Need?

Getting the septic tank pumped out is the go-to response most homeowners assume if they notice issues with their plumbing or septic system.

Here are some common signs that lead to this assumption…

  • Toilets backing up
  • Slow draining sinks & tubs
  • Sewage standing in yard

However, while pumping it out may offer a temporary benefit, it's usually not a permanent fix. More often than not, underlying issues within a septic system are the real reasons that cause these symptoms.

There are many instances when septic systems need repaired instead of pumping. Here are a few common culprits.

  • Lateral lines have roots causing backups
  • Broken sewage pipes
  • Incorrect elevations of lines and tank
  • Solids have escaped your tank and clogged the laterals

The most common of these is blockage within lateral lines.

Why This Happens

There will generally be three different layers that develop inside your tank. A scum layer at the top, liquid with suspended solids in the middle and sludge at the bottom.

A naturally occurring bacteria will dissolve part of the solids in your tank. A properly functioning system will steadily accumulate enough solids to occasionally require pumping.

If your system isn't designed or installed correctly it can cause solids to enter your lateral lines and cause backup issues. This leads many homeowners to believe they need their tank emptied.
