Preventive Care Programs That Extend System Life
Regular maintenance prevents the majority of septic failures and extends system lifespan by decades. Advanced Septic Services provides customized maintenance programs that keep your system operating efficiently and protect your property investment.
How It Works
Our maintenance approach prevents problems before they start:
- Scheduled inspections at intervals based on your system and usage
- Sludge level monitoring to determine optimal pumping timing
- Filter cleaning, baffle inspection, and pump testing
- Tank pumping when sludge reaches critical levels
- Detailed maintenance records and proactive recommendations
We customize maintenance schedules based on household size, tank capacity, system age, and usage patterns rather than one-size-fits-all timing.
Key Benefits
Prevent Emergency Failures – Regular maintenance catches issues while they're minor.
Replacing a filter during maintenance costs a fraction of repairing drain field damage from a clogged system.
Extend System Lifespan – Maintained systems last 30 to 40 years or more. Neglected systems
often fail after 15 to 20 years. Professional care pays for itself in avoided replacement costs.
Maintain Property Value – Documentation of regular maintenance increases property value and
speeds sales. Buyers pay premium prices for well-maintained systems.
Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What's included in a maintenance plan?
A: Plans typically include annual or bi-annual inspections, filter cleaning, sludge monitoring, detailed
reporting, and priority emergency service. Pumping is performed when needed.
Q: How often does my tank need pumping?
A: Depends on tank size and household usage. Small households with large tanks may go 4 to 5 years. Large
families with smaller tanks may need annual pumping. Inspections determine your specific schedule.
Q: Can I maintain my system myself?
A: Basic care like water conservation and avoiding harmful products helps, but professional inspections,
pumping, and component servicing require specialized equipment and expertise.
