"Russ did several excavation projects for a large, complex backyard renovation I'm doing, including the installation of a secondary septic tank that pumps to our original septic field.

Russ is a truly nice guy who wants the best for his customers and will make sure to deliver for them! Thank you Russ!"

Septic Tanks questions, answered by experts

To keep roots from growing into a septic tank. However, there are other steps you can take if existing tree roots are getting close to your septic tank. For one, you can install root barriers, which physically block roots from reaching your septic tank. You can also use chemical solutions in your yard or plumbing system to deter root growth.

Your septic tank naturally contains good bacteria, and you won’t really need to do much to put good bacteria in the septic tank. You can use additives like active yeast, rotten tomatoes, or store-bought septic enzymes or chemicals if you’d like, but typically, the system will produce beneficial bacteria on its own. The best way to keep that bacteria thriving is to avoid using chemical drain cleaners, which can kill off the good bacteria in the septic tank.

How often you need to pump your tank depends on the size of your tank and how many people live in your home. The average recommended frequency is every three to five years. However, your tank may need more or less frequent pumpings than that. For example, a single person with a 1,000-gallon septic tank may only need to pump it every nine to 12 years, while a five-person family with the same sized tank may need to pump it every two to four years.

Conventional anaerobic septic systems are the least-expensive type of septic system, costing $3,000 to $8,000 to install. There are a few factors that impact this price, including the size of the tank. For example, a 1,000-gallon septic tank (the minimum size required in many municipalities) costs between $900 and $1,500, while a 1,500-gallon tank costs $1,500 to $2,500.

There are no major drawbacks or risks to oversizing a well pressure tank for your well. In some cases, having a larger pressure tank can increase its lifespan as it won’t have to cycle on and off as often, resulting in less wear and tear. Keep in mind that larger pressure tanks have a higher upfront cost and take up more space.
