WHAT YOU NEED TO KNOW ABOUT SEPTIC TANKS
There are many myths and misconceptions surrounding the use of septic tanks. After 35 years in the Liquid Waste business, these are my views of what you should be doing with your septic.
About 80% of all septic tanks we do work on are not functioning properly. The cause of failure is more often than not household chemicals. Your tank needs bacteria to flourish so as to keep the separation of water from solids functioning and chemicals stop this happening and no matter what type of tank you have this affects you.
Your tank needs emptying every 3 years minimum. This is for all types of tanks.
