A septic tank is a large, underground, watertight container, typically about 9 feet long, is 4-5 feet wide and 5 feet tall that is connected to the home?s sewer line. While typically designed with a 1,000-gallon liquid capacity, the size of the tank is legally determined by the number of bedrooms in the home. Septic tanks may be rectangular or cylindrical and may be made of concrete, fiberglass or polyethylene.

Septic Cleaning Tampa

A common mistake made by home owners is to pour bleach, chloreine or other acidic products into the system in an attempt to remove certain smells and blockages. This in fact kills the necessary bacteria which is necessary to decompose solids, and this results in a tanks needing to be cleaned out and new bacteria input.

How do you know if your septic system is not working?

Sewage starts to backup into your drains or toilets. This is often a black liquid with a disagreeable odor.

Slow flushing of your toilets. Many of the drains in your house will drain much slower than usual.

Surface flow of wastewater. Sometimes you will notice liquid seeping along the surface of the ground near your septic system.?

Lush green grass over the absorption field, even during dry weather. Often, this indicates that an excessive amount of liquid from your system is moving up through the soil, instead of downward, as it should.

The presence of nitrates or bacteria in your drinking water well. This indicates that liquid from the system may be flowing into the well through the ground or over the surface. Water tests available from your local health department will indicate if you have this problem.

Buildup of aquatic weeds or algae in lakes or ponds near to your home. This may indicate that nutrient-rich septic system waste is leaching into the surface water

Unpleasant odors around your house. Often, an improperly vented plumbing system or a failing septic system causes a buildup of disagreeable odors around the house.
