Superior Septic Services has your septic pumping in Lake Stevens. Septic pumping is one way to extend the life of your septic tank. It is an event that should not be required often, but even with the best of care, septic tanks will eventually fill up.

One of the best ways to deal with y our septic pumping is to schedule regular service calls – about one per year – and to consider your technician’s advice. However, telltale signs that your tank needs pumped is a bad odor when you walk past the area, standing water on a dry day, and drains that are backing up in your house.

Some ways to increase the length of time between pumping events is to be careful what you feed your septic tank. Ideally, nothing should go in there except feces and toilet paper – and not too much of the latter. Compost kitchen waste instead of using a garbage disposal. Your kitchen garden and your sink will thank you. Recycle aluminum, cardboard, plastic and glass. Place all other household waste, including feminine products and disposable diapers in trash bags to be sent to the local landfill. You will find that after composting and recycling, you will have a much smaller amount to be sent away in the regular trash. Sometimes it is the simple things that are of the most help.
