Getting your Jacksonville Septic Tank Pumping is a relatively simple process. On the day of your appointment, your licensed technician will begin by locating your septic tank’s lid (which can be either a breakable concrete lid or a green plastic lid) and removing it. Once they’ve removed the lid, they’ll place a vacuum pump inside to suck up any liquid or solid waste that is in the septic tank. Once the septic tank is empty, your technician will flush out the filters and outlets that connect to the drain field and replace the septic tank lid.

It’s important to have your septic tank pumped regularly because it extends the lifespan of your septic system and helps keep your septic system in good working condition. Having your septic tank pumped at least once every five years also helps prevent your septic tank from overflowing, which can contaminate the groundwater and soil with harmful bacteria, pathogens, and degradable organic compounds.

If you’re not sure when your septic tank was last pumped, there are a few telltale signs that it’s time to schedule an appointment:

One of the most obvious is slow-draining fixtures like toilets, tubs, and sinks. If you notice this, it’s likely your septic tank is full and needs to be pumped out. Another sign is a sickly odor. As your septic tank fills, it releases odor-causing gases that can waft up through the drains and into your home, which is not only unpleasant but also dangerous for your health.
