Septic Tank Service

As anyone with a septic tank knows, regular service is a must. While a well installed septic tank will work as intended for decades, problems can arise if the tank isn’t pumped and regularly checked for roots and excess grease in the pipe lines.

If you have a septic tank and haven’t had a professional inspect or service it in some time, call the San Gabriel Valley area septic tank experts at Ace Pelizon Plumbing today. Our technicians have the training and skills needed to perform septic services of all types to ensure your system always functions as it should.

Septic Tank Maintenance

Regular septic tank service is recommended every two or three years. While most plumbing systems are designed to remove waste from your property and transfer it into a central sewer, a septic tank actually processes the waste itself. That means that if there is a clog or if excess solids build up somewhere in the system, the entire system is compromised. The only way to ensure this doesn’t happen is to have it inspected at least once every two or three years.

During that inspection, we will locate and open the septic tank. This alone can be a lengthy process if the tank was not installed in an easily accessible location. From there, the tank is cleaned and the excess sludge is pumped out and removed. If the need for repairs on the septic tank is discovered, our technicians can handle that as well.

After current bacteria level measurements are made, treatments can be performed to balance or enhance the bacteria levels in your tank. If a line is clogged or the drainage field isn’t working as it should, pipes are inspected for excess grease, roots in the lines, or large solids. The most common issue found during routine septic tank service is drainage field failure which is often caused by anaerobic bacteria build up. Fortunately, there are technologies available to fix this problem before replacement becomes necessary.
