What is Septic Tank Pumping?
To understand what Septic Tank Pumping is, we will tell you what a septic tank is and what happens in it.
A septic tank is an underground installation facility that serves to treat the wastewater coming from your home. It is made of concrete, fiberglass, or plastic.
When wastewater leaves your home, its first stop is the septic tank. There the water purification begins. In the septic tank, wastewater forms three main layers – the scum, the effluent, and the sludge.
The top layer, the scum, consists of fats, oils, and lighter solids. The middle layer, the effluent, is a liquid, which will be directed to the drain field after undergoing the necessary treatment in the septic tank. At the bottom is the last layer, the so-called sludge, which consists of all hard particles.
When you consume water in your home, it is constantly directed to the septic tank. It means that the facility continuously performs the necessary processes to treat wastewater.
In this way, more and more liquid and solid particles accumulate over time, making it difficult for the entire septic system to work. In these cases, various types of Septic System Services are performed, including Septic Tank Pumping.
Septic Tank Pumping is a process that removes fluid and some floating solids. It is one of the essential procedures when it comes to septic system maintenance. The pumping should be done regularly to ensure the proper operation of the entire septic system and protect you from serious problems.
