A normal three to four bedroom home every five years is fine.
Again, depends on what the market you're in.
That can run around $500, $600, $800.
That involves some person with a pump truck.
They come, they dig up the top of your septic tank, they find the cover, they put the hose in, they pump out your tank, it goes into a big shiny truck, and they truck that away.
They usually deposit it in a central waste management facility.
One thing that was recommended was that if you're buying a new home, make sure that you have the septic system thoroughly inspected by a septic professional before you sign the purchase and sale agreement.
Because all home inspectors do not inspect septic systems.
There's only a couple of states that require a septic inspection prior to closing a sale.
The onus is 100% in most communities on the buyer to ensure that the home they're buying has a working septic system that's also up to state code.
Most states rank the capacity requirements for a septic system based on the number of bedrooms in a home, not the number of bathrooms.
Make sure that you're not flushing anything down into the septic system that cannot be digested or dissolved.
And just don't park anything on top of your septic tank and don't flush flushable wipes.
It's to help save some money, but also,
You don't want to get into a situation where your septic system fails because that's not just bad for you financially, but you're also going to be like releasing a lot of really unpleasant stuff into the ground around your house.
And when you're in a tightly built community that's all on septic, you only need a few septic systems to go bad before the groundwater is in jeopardy.
