For those who don’t know, a septic tank is a sewage system that takes in your waste.
This isn’t a job you’ll want to do yourself, so hire a trusted professional like Halls Septic Services, who will carry out full inspections and complete any work that needs doing, as well as pumping your septic tank – find out more about their services here.
The dip pipe in a septic tank is similar to a baffle in that it controls what type of waste is allowed to exit – some tanks have both a baffle and dip pipe.
Driving over your septic tank in a tractor, for example, will put enormous amounts of pressure on the ground that your tank isn’t designed to take; you could be left with a collapsed tank and an unsightly mess.
