Q: How do you know when to empty a septic tank?

• <div><p>Most septic tanks need to be emptied every <b>3 to 5 years</b>, but it&rsquo;s a good idea to monitor the fill levels of your septic tank all the time. You can do this by installing a pressure level sensor to detect the internal tank pressure, or by having a septic tank company perform an annual inspection to let you know when you&rsquo;ll need to pump the tank.</p></div>

Q: Do septic tank companies need to be licensed?

• <div><p>Yes, states and municipalities require septic tank companies to be licensed, so an unlicensed individual or company cannot complete a septic tank installation or alteration. Most municipalities also require licenses for septic tank pumping. You should always verify that the company you&rsquo;re considering for your septic tank project is properly licensed, which you can do by using Angi&rsquo;s <a href="https://www.angi.com/angi-license-check.htm">licensing search tool</a>. You should also verify that the company is fully insured to avoid legal issues should an employee be injured on your property.</p></div>

Q: What are the indications that a septic tank needs cleaning or pumping out?

• <div><p>Slow drains, gurgling sounds, or foul odors can indicate septic issues. Regular inspections help identify when pumping is necessary to avoid overflow.</p></div>

Q: Is it normal to smell your septic outside?

• <div><p>It is not normal to smell your septic outside and indicates a problem such as an unsealed manhole or access lid, a clogged septic line, a faulty vent stack, or the need for a septic tank pumping. If sewage is leaking from your septic system, it can be hazardous to you, your family, pets, and the surrounding environment. You can troubleshoot the issue yourself, or contact a septic tank pro who can resolve the issue quickly.</p></div>

Q: How do you tell if your drain field is failing?

• <div><p>There are a few signs that indicate a failing drain field. For instance, if your septic tank starts requiring more pumping than normal, your drain field might be failing. Other signs to watch for include poor drainage after rain, standing water or sewage over the septic system, a strong septic smell outside, new and healthy grass growing over the drain field, and plumbing backups in your sinks, bathtubs, or toilets. </p></div>
