Septic tanks need to be pumped/cleaned regularly (recommended every 2-3 years) in order to get rid of solid waste deposits that form on the bottom and top of your tank and put life-shortening stress on your entire septic system. The average tank size for a home is 1000 gallons. Conneticut Valley Septic Services can determine your tank size through Conneticut Health Department records and pumping your tank.
It is important to clean your grease trap/interceptor regularly to prevent fats, oil and grease (FOG) from mixing with water that is discharged to the sewer.
Not only will routine inspections help correct and prevent problems but also will enhance your home's value and avoid any liability issues that might result from a malfunctioning system.
A percolation test (colloquially called a perc test) is performed to determine the water absorption rate of soil (that is, its capacity for percolation) in preparation for the building of a septic drain field (leach field) or infiltration basin. The results of a percolation test are required to properly design a septic system.
