Pumping of the septic tank
When my tank should be pumped? How often do I have to do it? Can it be done by myself? Many customers use to ask these two questions. To determine the number of times you need to do the pumping, it needs to be checked by a few factors. How many people reside in your home? Employees, how many of them do you have? How many times you will need to clean and pump your septic tank depends on the number of people using the facilities in your house or your company. Adding to that, the size of your septic tank is another factor which determines the frequency of pumping out the waste. A normal sized tank ideally should be pumped once every two to three years. In a case of a large organization, you might be required to clean and pump the tank twice in three years. Could you pump your tank? Well, you could.
