Septic Tanks questions, answered by experts

Trenches are 12 to 24 inches deep and 8 inches wide. However, the right depth for your trench will depend on the nature of your project. For example, if you’re digging a trench as part of a French drain installation, it should be 18 inches deep. An excavation professional can explain how deep your trench should be.

Septic tank odors can happen because of a few different issues with your septic system, such as a full tank, clogged drains, or blocked venting systems. Not only is a smelly septic tank pretty unpleasant, but it can also pose a potential hazard to yourself and your home. Toxic fumes could be hanging around, or untreated wastewater could be harming the environment.

Baking soda can help neutralize a septic smell. If the pH balance inside your tank is off, it can emit a sulfurous odor that resembles rotten eggs. Pour one cup of baking soda down your toilet once a week to help neutralize your septic tank. If you want to increase the bacteria in your septic tank, add three rotten tomatoes to your septic tank through your garbage disposal. You can do this once every three months.

Most cesspools are buried about 1 to 3 feet below ground. The cesspool itself can be between 8 to 10 feet deep, with an average capacity of 750 to 1,250 gallons. If you’re planning to fill in a cesspool, be prepared by knowing the size of your original tank so you can buy the appropriate amount of soil.

Sputtering water and a constant fluctuation of water pressure from your household faucets and fixtures are the main red flags that something bad is brewing with your well pump. The fix could be as simple as restarting the power or priming the pump, especially if the trouble is occurring after a power outage. However, if troubleshooting the power and pressure of your pump does not get things up and running again, it might be time to replace the pump.
