Why you need regular septic tank pump outs
How do septic tanks work?
If you want to understand why your septic tank might need a pump-out, it’s handy to know a bit about how traditional septic tanks work.
When you flush your toilet, the waste travels through your pipes and settles in your septic tank. The first tank captures the solids and the liquid travels through to the second tank. This happens by having a “square” or vertical down pipe on the inside of the tank where the waste comes in and goes out. The solids float, the scum drops to the bottom and the liquid goes up the vertical pipe on the exit side and flows through to the second tank.
If the solids or scum build up too much they will flow through to the second tank, which is normally a bit smaller. This will capture the solids from going to the most important part of your system, the leach drains.
The leach drains need to release hundreds of litres every day. The average water usage is 150L per person per day. So, a household of 4 will generate approximately 600L per day.
The volume of your 2 septic tanks is just over 3000L so within 5 days of using it, the tanks will be full, and the leach drains will start working. Your tanks stay at this level, about 300mm from the top.
Most system have two leach drains. There is a diverter that feeds either one or the other. We suggest changing over every six months, at tax time and around Xmas time. The liquid flowing through your diverter is surprisingly clear. If you notice dirty or muddy liquid flowing through you will need to empty both septic tanks urgently before your leach drains get blocked up.
