- Have a record of times of your tank inspections.Local authorities usually inspect septic tanks.Checking the tank and keeping a record of it has to be done regularly.Details of when, who and what happened during the inspection must be written in these records.
- Make sure that thing like plastics, paper towels, diapers, chemotherapy drugs and anti-bacterial hand washing soaps are avoided in disposal.In the septic tank, a bacteria cannot decompose these things.
- You could get tempted to plant some shrub or trees over you tank.The importance is to maintain the simple biological processes that go in the tank.This should extend its life and save your money.
