Unfortunately, the most overlooked system in Orlando area homes is the septa tank; it’s also one of the most expensive. All septic systems need regular tank pumping. This means the tank is emptied of all the waste and sludge, an important part of a well-functioning system. But homeowners often forget until they notice waste overflowing or foul odors.
If you can’t remember the last time you even thought about your septic system than contacting the professionals at Orlando Septic Services to make an appointment to have your septic tank pumped out should be your first course of action.
With regular inspections and pumping most problems can be completely avoided.
Foul odors, whether it’s just every now and then or constant, are a sign of a malfunction in the septic system. The smell may be coming from damaged vents, drain fields problems or leakage from the tank, either way an inspection is necessary.
Usually the odor is from an over filled tank will need to be pumped out. As a rule of thumb, it should be emptied out every 1 to 3 years.
Another cause for the odor is a damaged septic tank vent, drain field problem, or improperly sealed tank. They all can be a sign of serious issues and can easily create an unhealthy environment if not addressed quickly.
