  1. HOW ARE SEPTIC TANKS PUMPED By SEPTIC BLUE Septic pumping is an important part of keeping your septic tank in good working order. Septic pumping involves removing sludge and effluent from your septic tank using a vacuum truck. Over the years, your septic tank will accumulate a layer of solids (sludge) which settles at the bottom of the tank. If you don’t remove the sludge and effluent as needed, the sludge may build up and cause many problems. You should pump out an average household septic tank every three to five years.

  2. How a Septic Tank Is Pumped Septic tank pumping is carried out using a vacuum truck that has the ability to hold thousands of gallons of effluent. The first step is locating the manhole and removing the manhole cover. Thereafter, a long tube attached to the vacuum's pump is inserted directly into the septic tank, and then the equipment begins to suck out the contents of the septic tank. As the vacuum truck extracts the sludge and effluent, the extraction team will stir the contents of the tank using a muckrake to break up the solids and make the process more efficient. This process can take up to one hour depending on the size of the tank and the motor within the vacuum. It may take 30 minutes to empty a 1250-gallon septic tank and up to one hour for a larger septic tank. After extracting the sludge and effluent, the septic service will clean the outlet effluent filter by hosing it down with water.

  3. What Are the Advantages of Having Your Septic Tank Pumped? Regular septic tank pumping will keep your septic system running efficiently for years to come. If the sludge builds up to a level where it obstructs the outlet pipe, it could lead to slow drains, water contamination, bad odors, and health hazards. Emptying your septic tank as needed prevents untreated wastewater from wreaking havoc on your property. Besides, septic tank pumping helps to extend your septic tank's lifespan, thereby saving you from spending thousands of dollars on a replacement. Septic pumping is also a great way to increase your property value.
