It disposes of all your family’s waste water, from the toilet and shower to the sink and washing machine, if not working properly it can have devastating consequences. A yearly septic system check up is an affordable to ensure everything is working properly and catch any problems early, before they cost a small fortune to repair.
Change your septic systems diet
Just as a healthier lifestyle and diet will make you healthier this new year, your septic system will benefit by what you put down the drains.
Disposal in the kitchen sink
Think of it as a junk free diet for the disposal, don’t feed it grease, cooking oils, or fat. Avoid giving it pasta, potato skins, coffee grounds, rice, corn husk, or eggshells. Cut out coarse fibrous vegetables and produce, as well as bones or skin from poultry.
The bathroom
Toilets are made to remove waste water and toilet paper (which is made to decompose in the septic tank), nothing else! Avoid flushing coating balls, paper towels or feminine hygiene products. Only put waste water down the sink and shower, don’t put left over paint or wash paint brushes in the sink.
