Septic System Maintenance
Sludge that accumulates at the bottom of the tank must be pumped out about every 2 - 3 years. This does vary depending on the size of the tank, the number of residents, and the number of litres/day discharged to the septic tank. There are no additives you can put in the tank to deal with sludge. It must be pumped out.

Septic System Pumping
Out of sight, out of mind?

Since many septic systems are out of sight, they are sometimes easily forgotten in the process of going about our daily lives. However, our actions or inactions can affect and influence how long, and how well your septic system functions. When a septic system is not pumped out for a prolonged period of time, the probability that expensive or irreparable damage increases dramatically.
