- Septic Tank Maintenance and Care: The septic tank is the central part of most septic systems. In doing complete septic tank maintenance it is also important to include the other two basic components, the drain field and the soil. The tank maintenance alone can be complex since many things are to be considered. The tanks used are watertight containers used to hold sewage waste temporarily. Solid wastes accumulate in the bottom of the tank that needs pumping out after some time to avoid filling the tank. Scum floats on the surface of tank water. These are mainly made from the collected fats, oils and greases. During septic tank maintenance these are removed from the tank. Liquid wastes on the other hand flows out to the drain field through an exit hole found on the upper part of the tank. What goes into your system plays a major role in its upkeep. Different waste types require different maintenance approaches. Liquid, solid and non organic substances are the common categories of waste being placed in the septic tank. Call us today for quality septic tank maintenance services in Chillicothe, IL.
- Septic System Pumping: Water, while not dangerous by itself, is the main issue among liquid waste. Excessive water intake of a septic tank may lead to different abnormalities of its functions, such as an over-soaked drain field or backflow issues. Chemicals depending on its effect on the natural biological activity inside the tank are controlled. Disinfectants as much as possible are to be used for a minimal amount to avoid killing the beneficial anaerobic bacteria in the tank during the septic tank maintenance. Solid materials flushed down the drains significantly raise the accumulation of solid wastes in the bottom of the tank. While non organic substances may just add up to the bulk of waste in the tank. Regular pumping helps keep the tank from reaching capacity. Get in touch with us today!
How Does A Septic Tank System Work?
A good sewage treatment program (generally understood as a septic system) collects and processes waste from your property, separates solid waste from liquid waste inside holding containers, and releases clarified effluent into the soil absorption area. The first essential component of septic treatment is the septic tank itself. This underground sealed container gathers wastewater from the property. It isolates solids, begins the breakdown of organic waste, and retains sludge and scum. The result is relatively clear effluent. When functioning correctly, the tank divides solids and liquids. Solid waste and partially decomposed sludge settle at the bottom. Foam and grease create a scum layer at the top. Effluent located between these layers moves on to the drain field. The second stage is the distribution system. Its role is to carry treated liquid into the soil treatment area. In gravity-fed systems, liquid flows directly through an outlet pipe into the distribution area. A distribution box evenly disperses effluent across the field. Some systems rely on pumps to distribute effluent evenly using pressurized lines. The drain field performs the final stage of wastewater treatment. This portion of the system uses soil and trenches to filter and return water to the water table. Common configurations include trench fields, gravel filters, seepage holes, or mound systems. Less conventional systems include drip distribution, spray irrigation, or flow release techniques.

How the ST Pro Plumbing Works on Your Tank
The ST Pro Plumbing has experience going back several years, in septic cleaning and septic system maintenance. Our understanding of your septic system is backed up by this extensive work history. However, as a homeowner, it’s important for you to understand the working of your septic tank, even though our professionals will maintain it for you. Septic tanks differ, but the basic function is consistent across systems. Wastewater from your house is carried into the septic tank by gravity. This wastewater is held for one or two days in the tank. During this time the substances in the water are broken down by the anaerobic bacteria inside the tank. These bacteria separate the wastewater into solids, greases, oils, and floating substances. While bacteria inside your septic tank will do a fine job of breaking down your home’s wastewater, our professionals know it can’t dissolve everything. In every septic tank there is a layer of ‘scum’ floating at the top, in the middle there is a layer of partially treated or “grey” water, and heavy, thick sludge lines the bottom of the tank. All three layers must have a sort of internal “equilibrium” to them, which our professionals can help control, in order to continue functioning the way a septic system should. The grey water exits the tank after one or two days into the absorption area. Its made up of perforated pipes buried in trenches containing sand, gravel, or other dense, loose fill. The health and condition of your drain field is integral to the continued performance of your septic system, and as such, it will be regularly evaluated by us. The soil surrounding the pipes filters the effluent, removing remaining waste. Microbes in the soil, along with oxygen, break down harmful elements in the water. Effective soil filtration lets the septic system release clean water back into the ground. We can make sure that your drain field is working ideally. Household wastewater carries a mix of debris from toilets, showers, sinks, and washing machines. The bacteria already inside the septic tank can handle most of these easily. Our experts are available to handle any clogs or system backups.
For the Proper Treatment of Your Septic System call ST Pro Plumbing
Properly maintained systems by our experts can tolerate common chemicals including bleach, laundry detergent, and drain cleaners, yet toxic chemicals should never be poured or rinsed into the septic tank. Such chemicals may include paint thinner, solvents, or insecticides. Cooking fats and grease should also never go down a household drain. Instead, they should be stored in a separate container till they congeal, and then disposed of as a solid.
