- Septic Tank Maintenance and Care: A septic tank is the main component in a common septic system. Proper septic tank maintenance involves attention to the drain field and the soil as well. Tank maintenance alone requires careful consideration of several factors. The tanks used are watertight containers used to hold sewage waste temporarily. Over time, solids collect at the bottom and require routine pumping to avoid overfilling. Fats, oils, and grease create a floating scum layer. It consists mostly of accumulated 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. The amount of actual waste being placed in the system mainly sets the stage. 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 Homewood, Illinois.
- Septic System Pumping: While relatively harmless, water is the main concern for liquids. An overload of water can disrupt the normal operation of your septic system, such as an over-soaked drain field or backflow issues. The use of chemicals should be controlled due to their impact on the tanks biological activity. Its best to limit the use of disinfectants to protect the helpful bacteria that break down waste inside the tank. 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. 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, separates solid waste from liquid waste inside holding containers, and directs partially treated effluent to the soil through a drain field. 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 outcome is partially treated wastewater. In a properly functioning tank, solids and liquids are efficiently separated. 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 following phase is the effluent 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 most critical treatment occurs in the drain field. It relies on soil filtration to cleanse wastewater before returning it to the environment. Common configurations include trench fields, gravel filters, seepage holes, or mound systems. Other less common options include drip systems, spray irrigation, and flow release methods.

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 teams knowledge of septic systems is supported by years of hands-on work. 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. Though every septic system is slightly different, each septic tank works in the same manner. Gravity moves wastewater from your home into the septic tank. 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. Tanks have three layers: floating scum, middle grey water, and bottom sludge. 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. After remaining in the septic tank for one or two days, the “grey” wastewater inside the tank flows into the drain field. The drain field is a series of perforated pipes inside a trench filled with sand, gravel, tire chips, or other loose yet dense material. We monitor your drain field closely because its condition directly affects system performance. 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. A properly functioning drain field allows a septic tank to replenish the surrounding area’s ground water table with clean, potable water. We inspect and maintain drain fields to guarantee proper operation. Household wastewater carries a mix of debris from toilets, showers, sinks, and washing machines. Existing bacteria break down the majority of these materials. In case of a clog or septic back-up, our professionals are always available.
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. Grease and cooking fats should not be poured down any sink or drain. They should be poured into a separate container, allowed to solidify, and then disposed of as solid waste.
