Q: Why do you need to pump your septic tank?

• <div><p>Over time, your septic tank can accumulate a buildup of sludge at the bottom of the tank. If left unpumped and uncleaned, the sludge will back up into your pipes and home, causing failure and extensive (and smelly) damage. Repairs to your septic system can be costly, which is why regular maintenance is required. It takes about <b>30 minutes</b> to <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/how-long-to-pump-septic-tank.htm">pump a septic tank</a> that&rsquo;s 1,250 gallons or less or <b>1 hour</b> for larger varieties. </p></div>

Q: How do I maintain my cesspool?

• <div><p>You maintain a cesspool by pumping the tank every three to five years to prevent clogging. You should also have a septic tank or sewer system professional inspect the system once every three years. Avoid putting harmful chemicals and non-biodegradable items in the system to extend the life span of the cesspool.</p></div>

Q: What are the disadvantages of cesspools?

• <div><p>Although cesspits may be necessary depending on your main sewage system access or nearby soil quality, they carry a few drawbacks. Cesspools require regular emptying and have relatively high maintenance and pumping costs. Certain areas also disallow the use of cesspools and may require you to cover the <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/converting-cesspool-to-septic-cost.htm">cost of existing cesspools to be converted into septic tanks</a>.</p></div>

Q: Why is my septic tank filling up so fast?

• <div><p>Septic tanks appear full after pumping because the liquid levels have returned to normal. If you can see the pipe, the tank is empty. However, heavy rain can cause septic tanks to fill faster than normal. You might also have leaky pipes or faucets, causing extra water to drip down the drains and into the septic tank.</p></div>

Q: Will running water get rid of a sulfur smell?

• <div><p>Running water may get rid of a sulfur smell temporarily, but it isn&rsquo;t a long-term solution. If your taps smell like sulfur, take a look at some of the potential causes we&rsquo;ve outlined above. Depending on what&rsquo;s going on, you might need to contact a pro to identify and fix the issue.</p></div>
