- 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. Tank maintenance alone requires careful consideration of several factors. 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. During septic tank maintenance these are removed from the tank. 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. Different waste types require different maintenance approaches. Most septic waste falls into liquid, solid, and non-organic categories. Call us today for reliable septic system maintenance services in Lake Orion, MI.
- 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 waste sent through your drains adds to the sludge layer in 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 properly designed septic program (sewage treatment 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 primary component of any septic system is the septic tank. This is an underground, watertight container designed to receive wastewater from your home. The tank separates solids from liquids, partially breaks down organic matter, and stores sludge and debris. 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 second stage is the 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. A distribution box evenly disperses effluent across the field. In pressurized systems, a pump lifts effluent to a higher elevation using pressure dosing. The most critical treatment occurs in the drain field. It relies on soil filtration to cleanse wastewater before returning it to the environment. 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
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. 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. 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. 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. As the wastewater flows out of the holes along the pipes, it enters the soil, which acts as a natural filter for any remaining waste products in the water. The toxins, bacteria, or viruses in the wastewater are broken down by the microorganisms and the oxygen in the soil. Effective soil filtration lets the septic system release clean water back into the ground. We inspect and maintain drain fields to guarantee proper operation. 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. 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
Properly maintained systems by our experts can tolerate common chemicals including bleach, laundry detergent, and drain cleaners, but you should try not to flush or rinse toxic chemicals 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. Instead, they should be stored in a separate container till they congeal, and then disposed of as a solid.
