Miller’s Septic Tank Cleaning includes inspection, cleaning, and pumping of residential sewage systems. They also involve the maintenance of septic tanks, drain fields, and other components in a home’s septic system. They help keep wastewater and sewage from polluting local water sources, such as rivers and lakes.

A septic tank is a buried, watertight container that holds wastewater until bacteria can break it down. Solid waste sinks to the bottom of the tank forming sludge, while oil and grease floats to the top of the liquid wastewater (effluent). The wastewater then exits the tank into the drain field, which is a series of shallow, covered excavations in unsaturated soil. The soil accepts and filters the wastewater, removing harmful coliform bacteria and nutrients.

Septic Tank Maintenance Tips to Avoid Costly Repairs

In a properly functioning septic system, the concentration of pollutants in the wastewater is no more than what would naturally occur in the surrounding soil. The system is a popular alternative to sewer systems in rural and suburban areas that don’t have access to public sewage treatment plants.

The best way to maintain a septic system is to have it pumped and inspected on a regular basis. A septic tank should be pumped every two to three years, depending on the number of people in the household. It is also a good idea to conserve water, which will lower the amount of water that enters the septic tank and decreases the likelihood of clogs and malfunctions.
