Septic Tank Maintenance

A number of problems can hinder the proper performance of your septic tank. Excessive water usage, poor landscaping, and even age can be contributing factors. Handling these risks should be first on your to-do list.

Too much water can overload the septic system. Limit morning and bedtime water use. Run dishwashers and laundry washers at different times of the day. 

Inspect your drainage area for trees and shrubs. Their roots will invade your septic system at the first opportunity. Slow drains, or worse blockage, can occur. You can use Sanco's Root Destroyer to break down roots in your septic lines. 

Even a properly functioning septic tank system needs occasional maintenance. Inspect the septic tank for excessive sludge, and call a professional to pump the tank.

Sanco Industries offers Septic Tank Cleaner as part of your septic tank system’s maintenance plan. Septic Tank Cleaner is packed with natural bacteria to safely breakup solid waste and help prevent backups. Visit our page on Septic Tank Cleaner for more information.
