Septic Tank Pumping
Septic tanks allow waste to separate into three layers: solids, effluent, and scum. The solids settle to the bottom where microorganisms decompose them. The scum, composed of waste that’s lighter than water, floats on top. For septic tanks, the words “pumping” and “cleaning” are interchangeable, even though they mean slightly different things. Pumping means removing liquid and floating solids and sludge. Cleaning means removing all the water and compacted sludge from the bottom of the tank. This difference might seem small, but it can make a big impact on your septic system’s performance. We do both services to ensure you receive a thorough pumping and cleaning job.

Why take the risk?
If you are unsure when the septic system on your property was last pumped, contact Independent Septic and Sewer LLC for an assessment to avoid potential health and water access problems. Even though the average septic tank has a large capacity, sludge build-up will eventually reach its limit and if the tank is not pumped properly, system failure will occur and result in expensive repairs and health hazards.
Is the waste in your septic tank over the limit?
The average waste tank on a typical septic system can hold approximately 1000 to 1500 gallons. Septic tanks require regular annual inspection and pumping for moderate use and more frequent maintenance for larger homes or buildings with higher usage rates. The qualified specialists at Independent Septic and Sewer LLC provide efficient and reliable tank pumping services that keep your system running smoothly.
