Winter is not a great time to be thinking about your septic but maintenance of the system is very important. Here are a couple of tips to make sure it’s flowing.
1. Have your septic tank cleaned every 3-5 years, less if it’s a rental or you have 6 + in the house.
2. Add Bio-Clean (www.bio-clean.ca) to the system, this helps ensure everything is breaking down properly.
3. Do not use Kirkland or any 3 ply toilet paper.
4. Keep your filter cleaned every 6 months, if you have one.
5. Keep extra water from going to the system such as water softeners.
6. If you pump up (or pressure) system, regularly check your pump float and high water float are functioning.

If you are due for a septic tank cleaning, beat the rush and contact us now to book early.

For more information Google “A homeowner’s guide to septic systems, Nova Scotia”, our association has a great booklet to help educate homeowners on their septics. We also have hard copies if you would prefer.

People often ask how does a septic tank work, here is a great illustration.

There are many different layouts of tanks, capacties and construction material’s.

Tanks are designed to fill up and stay fill, the the water is displaced a water slowly trickles out to your absorption bed or pump chamber.
