Septic Tank Inspections – What A Home Owner Should Know

The National Small Flows Clearinghouse (NSFC) has published guidelines for home owners regarding the maintenance and inspection of residential septic tanks.

There are three important factors when deciding pumping frequency: the size of the septic tank, household practices, and water usage.

In addition to regular maintenance, the NSFC also recommends routine inspections.  Contact a qualified local pumping service or your local health department.
