Get matched with top septic tank pros in Fowler, OH

Q: Can a bigger well pump increase water pressure?

• <div><p>Yes, a bigger well pump can increase water pressure&mdash;up to a point. If you currently have a well pump of 8 GPM, you might notice a pressure boost when you go up to 10 GPM. However, overshooting significantly (going up to 15 GPM for an 8 GPM home) can strain your well system and result in things like burst pipes that can decrease your water pressure and make for costly repairs.</p></div>

Q: How often should a septic tank be serviced?

• <div><p>Septic systems typically require servicing every 3-5 years, but frequency varies according to household size and tank capacity.</p></div>

Q: Is it okay to oversize a well pressure tank?

• <div><p>Yes, it is generally okay to oversize a well pressure tank, and it will not harm your well system. The primary advantage is that a larger tank reduces frequent pump cycling, leading to longer, slower cycles with fewer startups. This can result in less wear and tear, potentially increasing the lifespan of the pump and conserving energy. However, there are drawbacks to consider. Oversized tanks have a higher upfront cost and require more physical space. While not necessarily a bad thing, opting for a tank that is appropriately sized for your well is often the most efficient choice in terms of cost and space.</p></div>

Q: Why do I need to drill a deeper well?

• <div><p>There are many reasons you may want to extend the depth of an existing well or drill a new, deeper well on your property. A deeper well can tap cleaner water sources&mdash;shallow water may contain more contaminants. With a deeper well, you&rsquo;ll also have an easier time reaching the water table depth (the level at which underground water is found) and can get past tricky soil conditions. </p><p>Plus, if your local building code requires a minimum well depth for safety and environmental standards, you&rsquo;ll meet the code by digging a deeper well in the first place.</p></div>

Q: Is it better to use a drain snake or drain cleaner in homes with a septic tank?

• <div><p>For homes with a septic tank, harsh chemicals like those found in drain cleaner or bleach aren&rsquo;t recommended. Some chemical drain cleaners can disrupt the balance of bacteria in the septic tank or damage your pipes. For homes with a septic tank, you can choose drain cleaners specifically formulated for use with septic tanks or go with a drain snake. When in doubt, make sure you know <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/who-to-call-for-clogged-drain.htm">who to call for a clogged drain</a>. </p></div>
