In Our Business a Straight Flush Beats a Full House
Septic Tank Pumping
Septic Tank Pumping is a routine maintenance task and the most basic service you’ll need every 2-5 years. Our tag line for years has been “In Our Business a Straight Flush Beats a Full House”.
The frequency of pumping depends upon several factors such as the capacity of your tank, the water usage in your home, and likely the season you are in as a family.
Homes with growing families including children and teenagers will usually use more water and put more solids into the septic system.
The key is “don’t ignore” your system or a $200-300 pumping fee will turn into a drain field replacement. The issue is you never want the sludge or scum layers of your tank to fill more than approximately 30% of your tank’s volume.
We have the necessary years of experience and state-of-the-art equipment to get the job done right and only dispose waste at licensed facilities. Senior Citizens and Military Personnel will receive a $10 DISCOUNT on tank pumping services.
Pumping Process
Wray’s Septic Tank & Development CO. can pump out your sepic tank and we are licensed in the State of Michigan to haul it.
To pump out all of the material from your tank, the scum layer must be disrupted and the sludge layer mixed with the liquid portion in your tank. This takes some experience and could require pumping a portion of the tank and then re-injecting it into the bottom of the tank. The goal is to remove the scum and sludge layers during the pumping process so the entire septic system performs efficiently.
Please call us today at (269) 673-4791 to schedule your pumping.
