6 Common Myths, DEBUNKED
Myth:
“You Don’t Need to Pump Your Septic Tank.”
“Additives Help Your Septic System.”
“You Will Never Have to Replace a Well-Maintained Septic Tank.”
“You Can Flush Anything Down the Toilet.”
“Household Cleaners Don't Affect Septic Systems.”
“Septic Systems Can Handle an Unlimited Amount of Water.”
Fact:
Your septic tank needs routine maintenance at least every 2-3 years.
Your septic tank naturally contains good bacteria and will produce it on its own.
No matter how good your septic system maintenance is, the tank will need replacing at some point if it gets old enough.
Only human waste and toilet paper should be flushed; everything else should go in the trash.
Some household cleaners contain chemicals that can harm the beneficial bacteria in your septic tank.
Septic systems have a finite capacity for processing water. Overloading them with excessive water usage can lead to system issues. Be mindful of your water consumption, especially during rainy seasons.
