  • Pumpout annually - consider scheduling an annual pumpout with a licensed septic tank pumping company or as needed (usually every 1-5 years depending on the number of people in the household)
  • Inspect your drainfield - is it moist, mushy or soaked? If yes, it may be wise to have a septic system contractor to inspect your septic for potential drainage problems.
