Septic Tank DO’s and DONT’S. We want you to know what you should DO and what you should NOT DO to make your septic tank work the best for you!
Take Care of Your Septic Tank!
The reason you should take care of your septic tank is because, first of all, you don’t want sewage backing up into your home! And, second of all, you want to save your drain field! If either of these things happen, it can cost you a lot of money!
Make sure your septic tank is up to code with proper baffles!
What Goes Down The Drain?
