Important signs and symptoms that your septic system might be failing
By James Corley 23 Aug, 2020
A well designed, properly installed, carefully maintained septic system will function for decades without a problem. But let's be real, this never happens! Whether it's because the architect developed a poor plan, the plumber did a lousy job installing the drain field, or because of neglect, there will inevitably be issues with your septic system. Now, some issues are definitely worse than others when it comes to your septic system. By far, the worst problem that you can experience is when your system fails and sewage backs up directly into your home. It gives me the hebee geebees just thinking about that problem! Ick! Hopefully you will never experience this nightmare. However, there are many other problems that can develop over time with your septic system. The good news is that when your system is properly maintained, it greatly decreases your chances of having a major problem with your septic system. The most important thing that you can do to help make sure that you never develop any major problems with your septic system is to use it correctly! Septic systems are designed to handle water, human waste, and toilet paper. Anything else that you dispose of in your toilet, sink, or bathtub can cause problems with your septic system. For more information about using your toilet as trash can, check out this blog post. 7 Things That Should NEVER be Flushed Down Your Toilet In addition to treating your septic system with kindness and respect, the next thing that should be done on a regular basis is to have your septic tank pumped every 3 to 5 years. Over time, your septic tank will continuously accumulate solid waste which will eventually fill the tank and prevent the system from working correctly. In order to prevent the problems that will arise from a full septic tank, it needs to be pumped to empty the solids. Unfortunately, this is one of the most common reasons why people develop problems with their septic system. If you haven't had your septic tank pumped within the last 3 to 5 years, you should strongly consider scheduling a pumping in the very near future. Failure to properly care for your septic system can lead to some real problems. There are several warning signs you may encounter when your septic system begins to fail. Please check out this blog post to learn about the symptoms of a failing septic system. 5 Signs You Should Have Your Septic Tank Pumped If you are experiencing any of these issues with your septic system, don't ignore them!

It is quite tempting to use the toilet as a magical trash can that can simply whisk any unwanted item as long as it will fit down that little hole. Trust us! This is not a good approach when it comes to proper care and feeding of your toilet. The only thing your toilet is designed to handle is human waste and toilet paper... that it! And maybe those "flushable wipes," but that's debatable. Flushing anything other than human waste and toilet paper can cause major problems for your septic system. We have compiled a list of 7 very commonly flushed items that definitely SHOULD NOT be flushed down the toilet.
