Septic Services FAQs

Signs Your Septic Tank Needs to be Cleaned and Pumped

If the septic tank is not regularly emptied and cleaned, it can become too full, resulting in a variety of issues.

Some common signs that a septic tank needs to be cleaned include:

  • Foul odors coming from the drains in the home,
  • Slow-draining toilets or sinks, and
  • Gurgling noises from the plumbing
  • Wet patches on the ground near where the septic tank is located,
  • Pools of water near the outlet pipe, or
  • Sewage backing up into the house.

A professional septic tank cleaning company should be contacted right away to inspect and clean out the tank if any of these symptoms show up.

Pumping out all of the trash and debris from inside the tank is the first step in a professional septic tank cleaning. An inspection is then conducted to look for any damage or maintenance issues. By doing this, you can guarantee that everything is working properly and lessen any potential health risks that could result from a septic system that hasn't been maintained.

How Often Should My Septic Tank Get Pumped?


The frequency at which a septic tank should be pumped can vary depending on several factors, such as the size of the tank, the number of people in the household, and the usage patterns. As a general guideline, it is recommended to have a septic tank pumped every 3 to 5 years. However, it's important to note that this is a rough estimate, and the actual pumping frequency may vary.

Here are some factors to consider when determining the pumping frequency:

  • Tank Size: The size of the septic tank plays a role in determining how often it needs to be pumped. Larger tanks can hold more waste and may require less frequent pumping compared to smaller tanks.
  • Household Size: The number of people living in the house impacts the amount of wastewater generated. More occupants generally mean more water usage and a higher load on the septic system, which may require more frequent pumping.
  • Water Usage: Excessive water usage, such as frequent laundry, long showers, or running multiple appliances simultaneously, can put additional strain on the septic system. This may necessitate more frequent pumping.
  • Solid Waste Production: The amount of solid waste entering the septic system affects its capacity. If your household generates a significant amount of solid waste, it may lead to faster filling of the tank, requiring more frequent pumping.
  • System Inspection: Regular inspections of your septic system by a professional can help determine the ideal pumping frequency. They can assess the sludge and scum levels in the tank and provide recommendations based on its condition.

To ensure proper maintenance of your septic system, it is advisable to consult with a septic team like Zoom Drain of Montgomery County who can assess your specific situation and provide personalized recommendations for pumping frequency. We can consider the factors mentioned above and offer guidance on the best schedule to prevent issues and maintain the longevity and functionality of your septic tank.
