Septic Tanks questions, answered by experts

A septic perc test is done by drilling a hole into the ground, filling the hole with water, and testing to see how long it drains. While simple, the test itself provides a great deal of information about your yard. The last thing you want to do is skip a perc test only to discover your yard doesn’t drain sewage effectively.

Yes, you can pump a septic tank too much. The ideal pumping schedule varies based on capacity, water usage, and household size. If you pump the septic tank more frequently than your recommended pumping schedule, the beneficial bacteria can leach into the drain field, causing an imbalance and solid waste build-up.

Schedule annual inspections, monitor water pressure, and address minor issues promptly to avoid major repairs.

Septic tanks aren’t bad for the environment as long as they receive proper maintenance and attention. This means staying up-to-date with professional septic system inspections and septic tank pumping. Without regular maintenance, parts of the septic system could break or stop working, potentially letting harmful waste into the soil and groundwater.

Septic tank costs vary with the size of the tank—and the size you need depends on the size of your household. For example, a 1,000-gallon septic tank is the minimum size for most 1-, 2-, or 3-bedroom homes, and costs between $900 and $1,500. However, the tank is only one part of the septic system—which costs significantly more to install. If you’re setting up a new septic system (rather than replacing an existing tank), you can expect to pay about $7,310 on average. Costs can be higher depending on the type of septic system you choose.
