The Warning Signs: When to Call
As you utilize your home’s plumbing system, you might note a few things have been off of late. For instance, is there slow drainage when you flush the toilets, or is water backing into the toilets, sinks, or tubs? Is there an unusual gurgling sound that accompanies every flush of the bathroom or each time you run the water? Did you notice any changes in your backyard where the septic tank is? Are there wet areas in your lawn with depressions forming in the soil? Do parts of your grass exhibit a much darker green color than other yard sections? Have you noticed unpleasant odors wafting about your property?
The truth is that any of these signs can be potential future warning flags of severe septic tank system failure. A typical septic tank system comprises four primary components: the septic tank, pipes leading from your home to the tank, a drain field, and the soil itself.
Septic Tank Components
In this closed septic plumbing system, the water leaves your house via the pipes to the submerged septic tank, which holds the wastewater long enough to allow solids to settle out, forming a sludge that will enable oil and grease to float to the surface. While in the tank, the solid materials are partially decomposed and held in compartments that keep the sludge from moving to the drainage fields.
Once the wastewater discharges into the drain field, additional treatment begins. This partially treated wastewater is pushed further into the drainage fields, where most of it is designed to evaporate away while the remainder is absorbed into the soil.
Failure can occur at any point in the system, and it takes a trained specialist to locate the problem and make the necessary septic tank repairs. Whether you need a complete septic tank installation, a new drain line installation, or have to schedule regular maintenance work, bringing in a professional early is a critical first step in solving your septic pumping issues.
Common Service Problems
Invariably, if sewage is backing up into your home or pooling in your yard, then there are typically a few culprits that can be viewed as the usual suspects in these matters:
Age—In addition to the normal wear and tear associated with an old septic system, older tanks may have been placed at depths that would not be accepted today under newly established guidelines, such as those set too near the water table or in appropriate soil.
Broken Fittings—Septic systems are comprised of numerous parts and pieces that are subject to wear and tear, such as tee fittings and tank baffles. These parts are designed to slow down wastewater inflow and outflow, giving bacteria the time it needs to begin breaking down the waste. When these parts break, the entire system works less efficiently, which shows up in your poorly performing plumbing.
Lack of Maintenance—If allowed to build up, solid waste will build to the point where it is forced out of the tank and into the drain field. Once in the area, the debris clogs the gravel and soil, which then causes wastewater to back up or erupt from the ground.
