"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

Most deep wells can be expected to last somewhere between 30 and 50 years. This assumes that the well and all of its components are properly maintained on a regular basis. During this time, it is unlikely that modern deep wells will run dry over the course of their typical lifespan. That is one of the biggest benefits of digging a deeper well. 

Yes, it is possible to drill a well by hand, but it calls for a good deal of physical labor. Drilling a well by hand is best suited for softer soil, and it may not be possible through rockier terrain. For wider and deeper holes, companies with professional equipment make the job much easier.

You may want to increase the size of your leach field, for instance, if you add on to your home or install more bathrooms in your house. You can make your leach field larger by installing more pipes or expanding the area of the field itself. Improving the soil quality in the drain field can also make it more effective without increasing the area.

Although air in your water lines won’t affect the overall quality of your water, it will lead to problems with your well water system if not addressed. Over time, too much air in your water lines can create blockages in your pipes, cause insufficient water flow to your taps and appliances, loosen pipes, and potentially damage important components of your well including your well pump and pressure tank. 

Unlike an urban sewer system that runs wastewater into a central drainage system, septic tanks are a house-by-house system. They are the ultimate destination for all your house’s wastewater—from bathtubs, showers, sinks, toilets, and washing machines. Wastewater flows into a tank buried in the ground outside your home, and then water runs from the tank to a drainage field using sloped pipes.
