Sizing the septic tank is one of the most important decisions you’ll make for your new septic tank installation. We highly recommend consulting with a septic specialist. If your tank is undersized, you’ll unnecessarily spend over the years through pumping and repairing services.
The baseline for most homes is between 1,000 to 1,500 gallons. Depending on the home, experts recommend adding between 250 to 500 gallons for each bedroom beyond the third. You’ll also need to account for high water usage if applicable. The tank should be at least twice the capacity of the water you’ll use daily.
When a septic tank is functioning optimally, the waste in the tank will break down over time. That doesn’t mean you never need to pump it. In fact, the consensus among experts is that you should schedule septic tank pumping every three to five years. Because of the buildup of materials that may not break down, you may eventually run into problems with your leaching field. This will cause foul smells and saturated ground in your yard. Routine pumping helps to avoid this.
You may also experience blockages that require septic tank repair. This can result from household products that enter your system. It can also be because of invasive tree roots, which can wreak havoc on a septic system. Clogs are common at both the inlet and outlet baffles. They can also occur in the leaching field.
