- 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. 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. It consists mostly of accumulated fats, oils, and greases. Routine service includes removing this buildup. The liquid portion then moves through an upper outlet into the drain field. The amount of actual waste being placed in the system mainly sets the stage. 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 Oneonta, NY.
- 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, 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. Non-biodegradable items add to the total mass inside the tank. Periodic pumping of these wastes is needed to avoid the tank being full. 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 releases clarified effluent into the soil absorption area. The primary component of any septic system is the septic tank. 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. 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. The partially treated liquid between these layers flows out to the drain field. The following phase is the effluent distribution system. This system moves wastewater from the septic tank to the absorption area. Gravity flow allows wastewater to move naturally into the absorption system. This component spreads wastewater evenly throughout 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. 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
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. Septic tanks differ, but the basic function is consistent across systems. 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. Our experts manage the equilibrium of the three layers to keep your system functioning correctly. 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. 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. Existing bacteria break down the majority of these materials. 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. They should be poured into a separate container, allowed to solidify, and then disposed of as solid waste.
