"I live in Tellico Village and we were having issues with slow flushing and bubbling sound in the drains. I called WhizPro to come out. Online and on the phone I was told it is a $99 service fee to come out. That quickly changed $420 because it is considered ?complex? after he noted water in the sewer clean out pipe. The plumber mentioned it could be a problem with my grinder pump. I told him that the POA maintains that, and I would need to call them if this is the issue. He unsealed the basin lid and noted it to be full, indicating a malfunction. I went inside to call the POA Water Works. Meanwhile, he opened the electrical box for the grinder, which he later told me he is not supposed to do. He ran a voltage test and told me my grinder was ?burned out?. I told him the POA water works is coming, and they will manage the job from this point. He declined to reduce the $420 fee to $99 despite only taking off two lids. Would not recommend. "

Septic Tanks questions, answered by experts

While you can drain water softener backwash into a septic tank, doing so may cause several problems. One problem is that increased sodium chloride levels from water softener backwash can kill septic tank bacteria, decreasing the effectiveness of this wastewater treatment system. Another issue is that large calcium deposits can eventually stop up the drain field and lead to poor drainage. 

Age is certainly a factor in well pump failure. The older your pump, the more likely it is to fail. 

Beyond age, other factors can cause your well pump to fail, too. Things like poor water quality can cause sediment buildup in your pump. Without proper cleaning, your pump can seize up and fail. Having a dry well for too long can also cause your pump to fail, as it keeps working even though there's no water for it to pull. 

If you notice a septic smell in the house, you can either call a septic system repair company or a plumber. These professionals have the proper licenses and equipment to investigate the pipes and septic tank while keeping your family safe from sewage gas exposure and raw sewage leaks. They will be able to find the problem as soon as possible and get it fixed so that your home can get back to smelling fresh again.

Septic leach lines are buried between 18 and 36 inches into the ground and are at least 6 inches under its surface. Keeping leach lines buried helps minimize odors, and it helps the system utilize bacteria and biological processes both underground and from the air to further treat and filter the wastewater.

Septic systems typically require servicing every 3-5 years, but frequency varies according to household size and tank capacity.
