- 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. These tanks are sealed units built to contain wastewater for a period of time. 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. Routine service includes removing this buildup. The liquid portion then moves through an upper outlet into the drain field. What goes into your system plays a major role in its upkeep. Depending on what type of waste, septic maintenance is done to address the problems that arise from these wastes. Most septic waste falls into liquid, solid, and non-organic categories. Reach out now for quality septic tank maintenance services in Dolton, IL.
- Septic System Pumping: While relatively harmless, water is the main concern for liquids. Excessive water intake of a septic tank may lead to different abnormalities of its functions, like dealing with drain field over soaking and drain back flowing. The use of chemicals should be controlled due to their impact on the tanks biological activity. 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. Non-biodegradable items add to the total mass inside the tank. Regular pumping helps keep the tank from reaching capacity. Call us now!
How Does A Septic Tank System Work?
A good sewage treatment program (generally understood as a septic system) removes all waste from a building, divides solid materials from liquid effluent in containment vessels, and directs partially treated effluent to the soil through a drain field. The primary component of any septic system is the septic tank. This is an underground, watertight container designed to receive wastewater from your home. It isolates solids, begins the breakdown of organic waste, and retains sludge and scum. The result is relatively clear effluent. In a properly functioning tank, solids and liquids are efficiently separated. Dense waste materials sink and form a sludge layer. Lighter materials such as fats, oils, and grease float to the top. Effluent located between these layers moves on to the drain field. The following phase is the effluent distribution system. This system moves wastewater from the septic tank to the absorption area. In gravity-fed systems, liquid flows directly through an outlet pipe into the distribution area. This component spreads wastewater evenly throughout the field. In pressurized systems, a pump lifts effluent to a higher elevation using pressure dosing. 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. Drain field systems may include cesspools, seepage pits, trench systems, subsurface gravel filters, or raised mound systems. Less conventional systems include drip distribution, spray irrigation, or flow release techniques.

How the ST Pro Plumbing Works on Your Tank
With extensive experience in septic cleaning and maintenance, ST Pro Plumbing has a long history of service. Our understanding of your septic system is backed up by this extensive work history. Its important for homeowners to be aware of how their septic tank works, even with professional maintenance. Though every septic system is slightly different, each septic tank works in the same manner. Wastewater from your house is carried into the septic tank by gravity. Wastewater stays in the tank for about one or two days. During this time the substances in the water are broken down by the anaerobic bacteria inside the tank. The bacteria help segregate solids, oils, greases, and other floating materials. Bacteria do much of the work, but certain materials cannot be dissolved without maintenance. 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. The drain field is a series of perforated pipes inside a trench filled with sand, gravel, tire chips, or other loose yet dense material. 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
Systems designed and maintained by our professionals can handle a large amount of normal chemicals, such as laundry detergent, bleach, and drain cleaners, yet toxic chemicals should never be poured or rinsed into the septic tank. Toxic substances can include paint thinners, solvents, and pesticide products. Cooking fats and grease should also never go down a household drain. They should be poured into a separate container, allowed to solidify, and then disposed of as solid waste.
