Frequently Asked Questions 

  • What type of maintenance does my septic system need?

    Septic tanks require different maintenance according to various conditions, such as the tank or family size. Usually, a family with three or four people should get pumped every three years to function properly. 

  • What happens during a septic system inspection?

    Inspectors at Moore Sanitation will evaluate the condition of your tank. We check for any unusual wear and ensure the baffles are in place. This includes checking your drain piping. 

  • What does septic tank pumping do?

    Septic tank pumping has many benefits. It ensures a long, trouble-free septic and leach bed life. At Moore Sanitation, septic tank pumping includes cleaning as well. We remove all sludge, waste and scum from the tank to keep drinking water safe and the system functioning correctly. 

  • What else can I do to ensure that my septic tank lasts longer?

    Apart from regular septic tank pumping and maintenance, there are other ways to ensure your septic tank lasts longer. One suggestion is not to treat your toilet as a garbage disposal and to avoid disposing of anything that could create an imbalance in the septic system. 

  • What does it mean if my septic tank smells bad?

    When your septic tank smells bad, it usually signifies the lack of bacteria. An unknown fact is that the more bacteria in your septic tank, the less it will smell. Good bacteria are essential for a healthy and clean septic tank system. If your septic tank has an unpleasant odor, call Moore Sanitation now for a septic tank inspection and cleaning.
