"After finding my Septic Tank sewage back filling my shower (lowest point of drainage in house), I realized there was a blockage in the drainage system downstream, most likely in the Septic Tank Inlet. Per Murphy's Law, this event happened on Sunday, when most businesses are closed. Using Home Advisor, I selected 3 best choices for Septic Tank service, and called them all on Sunday, leaving a detail voice message for each. Bradford Raider Rooter was the only service to call back an Monday morning, and was able to dispatch a service truck Monday afternoon. The service tech quickly located and uncovered the Septic Tank Access Lid, and proceeded to vacuum out the overfull tank. I soon became readily apparent the my kids excessive use or toilet paper (2 rolls/day) had clogged the inlet, and the service tech removed the blockage. Then the service tech proceeded to clean and flush the tank thoroughly, and confirm that all plumbing in house was draining properly. In summary, Bradford Raider Rooter was responsive and provided timely service. The service tech was courteous, knowledgeable, and thorough."

Septic Tanks FAQs, answered by experts

It only takes a few days for a septic tank to fill with water after a pro has pumped it. This is completely normal, and the water is a vital part of your septic system’s wastewater treatment process. The water that fills your tank days after pumping is not the same as the tank being filled with waste. You shouldn’t have to pump your septic system more than once every three to five years unless you have a tank that’s too small for your home’s water output or there’s a problem with your leach field. 

There are a few things that can make your drain field fail. These include driving or parking vehicles or heavy machinery on the field, excess sodium in the soil, or having a high water table. You can prevent failure by ensuring your installer checks that your chosen location is suitable for a drain field and properly maintaining your system with the help of a professional.

All municipalities in the U.S. require a permit for septic tank installation or septic system alteration, and the permit will usually cost between $450 and $2,500. Some municipalities also require permits for septic system repair. You’ll either need to contact your local building department or your septic tank company to ask if this is necessary before carrying out the work. Permits are not typically required to have your septic tank pumped, so provided your septic company is licensed, you can move forward with the work as needed.

While you can drain water softener backwash into a septic tank, doing so may cause several problems. One problem is that increased sodium chloride levels from water softener backwash can kill septic tank bacteria, decreasing the effectiveness of this wastewater treatment system. Another issue is that large calcium deposits can eventually stop up the drain field and lead to poor drainage. 

The pressure in a well pressure tank should be set 2 to 3 PSI below the pump's cut-on pressure. The cut-on pressure is the lower number in the pressure setting (e.g., the '30' in 30/50 PSI) and is the point at which the pump starts. The cut-out pressure is the higher number, where the pump stops.

For example:

  • If your pressure switch is set to 30/50 PSI, the tank pressure should be 27-28 PSI.

  • If your pressure switch is set to 40/60 PSI, the tank pressure should be 38 PSI.

Common pressure settings for household applications include 20/40, 30/50, and 40/60 PSI. The difference between the cut-on and cut-out pressure is typically 20 PSI.
