Commercial and industrial septic systems must be pumped more frequently than residential septic systems. Greasy waste and waste with chemical residues require septic systems to be pumped as often as once every three months.
It’s a great idea to establish a planned service schedule to avoid the frustration and hassle of having to remember to call. And if you’re like every other busy business owner or manager, it’s the last thing on your mind. Unfortunately, neglecting your septic system can result in a messy, costly and potentially embarrassing overflow.
There’s a few things that dictate how often you need to have it pumped:
- Size of the tank
- Volume of wastewater flow
- Amount and types of debris contained within the wastewater
