Septic tank pumping is one of the realities of living in a house with a septic tank. But how do you know when it’s time to have septic tank pumping done? Below are three possible signs.
- Your Drains Are Slow
When you notice that your drains are slow, then there’s a good chance that your septic tank needs to be pumped. If you’ve noticed that your tub, sink, and toilet are draining slowly, think about the last time that your septic tank was pumped. If it’s been a while, chances are that it is time.
- Sewage Backing Up
The last thing that you want is to see sewage coming back into your toilet, bathtub, or sink. However, when your septic tank is overly full, this can happen. Not only is this going to make a mess, but it also can cause health problems.
- The Grass of Your Drain Field Are Extra Green
If you’ve noticed that the grass in your drain field is a lot greener and plusher than the grass in the other areas of the yard, there’s a distinct possibility that it’s time for a septic tank pump. It usually means that the liquid from the system is coming up.
These are three signs that you may need a septic tank pumping. If you are noticing any of these signs and it’s been a while since your septic tank was pumped, call a professional today.
