"Outstanding. We purchased the expansion tank with plans to install but decided to get a plumber. Glad we did. Nate checked the pressure of our water and then pressurized the new tank accordingly. He sat down with me to explain exactly what he was going to do before he did it including how much it would cost. Afterward, he took time to give me tips on caring for the hot water heaters showing me exactly what to do. He also added a support bracket (no additional cost) near the expansion tank because he felt it made it safer. And he flushed the hot water tanks for us and showed me how to do that to prolong the life of the tanks as well as make them more efficient. The van says "The Punctual Plumber" and he was right on time - and called 15 minutes prior to let me know he was on his way."

Septic Tanks FAQs, answered by experts

A septic tank with a 1,500-gallon capacity is good for larger homes with up to 6 or 7 bedrooms. The average home can go with a smaller tank, about 1,000 gallons, which supports a home size of up to 2,500 square feet, or a home with about three bedrooms.

On average, septic systems last between 15 and 20 years. However, with proper care and routine septic maintenance, you may be able to extend your septic system’s life span to 30 years (or more). Some ways to keep your system in tip-top shape include scheduling a professional inspection every two to five years and reducing the flow of wastewater into your system.

A well pressure tank typically lasts between 5 and 15 years. However, its lifespan can be influenced by several factors. High-quality, appropriately sized tanks tend to last longer, with some top-of-the-line models lasting up to 30 years. Regular annual maintenance, including inspections, cleaning, and prompt repairs, is crucial for extending the tank's life. Water quality also plays a significant role; water with high levels of sediment, minerals, or rocks can cause premature wear. Overworking an undersized tank can also limit its lifespan.

Having a well means that a household’s water supply, including water that comes through faucets, showerheads, and appliances, is supplied through a private source rather than from a city. The well pulls fresh water from an underground water supply, such as an aquifer, and the well pump pushes the water from the well to your household.

To keep your septic tank healthy, be careful of what you flush and be conservative with water usage, as even flushing too much water down the drain can throw off the septic system’s delicate balance. Never flush anything but human waste and toilet paper down your toilet, and be sure to have the tank inspected and pumped every two to five years, depending on the size of your household and your water usage.
