If Im not having a problem with my septic system, Do I still have to have it pumped out?
Yes, Yes, Yes. One of the most important things is providing your septic system with the proper maintenance, just think – you would never drive your car 50,000 miles without changing the oil. When your tank is pumped out, the scum and sludge layers should be removed and the leaching portion of your system is able to take a brief break from receiving any liquid.
