SEPTIC TANK PUMPING
​
Your septic tank should be pumped approximately every 3 to 5 years for most residential households. The more frequently the system is used, the more often you will need to have it pumped. Think of it like an oil change for your car; if you neglect to change the oil, you risk having to replace the entire engine.
​
There’s an exception to the 3-5 year rule for newly purchased or occupied homes. We recommend pumping these systems two years after you move in. This service allows us to analyze the contents of the tank, address any potential issues before they escalate, and determine whether your tank needs pumping every 3, 4, or 5 years.
​
A professional from Shalom Plumbing & Septic will be happy to help you schedule service based on your specific needs and circumstances.
