Taking Care Of Your Frankfort Septic System
If you live in a rural or unincorporated Frankfort IL, area chances are you have a septic system. Taking care of your septic system is not a difficult task. By following simple guidelines you should have a trouble free septic system.
Perform Regular Maintenance
Always remember, your Frankfort septic tank should be pumped out every 3-5 years if sized accordingly for proper maintenance. Sometimes additional pumping is needed to accommodate for parties or more than average usage.
Tips For Maintaining Your System
- Keep Area Clear
- Never build anything over a septic system including decks, pools, and landscaping.
- Don’t Overload the Septic Tank and Drain field.
- Check faucets and toilets for leaks; make repairs if necessary.
- Reduce water levels for small loads of laundry.
- Wait until the dishwasher is full to run it.
- Do not use a garbage disposal. It adds up to 50 percent more solids to your septic tank, and your tank will require more
frequent pump-outs. - Remember pump tank every 3-5 Years.
- Avoid any additives and bacterial killing chemicals because they can cause more harm then good.
- Don’t Pour Grease Down the Drain. Grease can clog pipes in your drain field, making it impossible for the soil to absorb liquids.
