What is Septic Pumping?
Septic pumping, also known as septic tank pumping or septic tank cleaning, is the process of removing accumulated solids and sludge from a septic tank. Septic tanks are underground wastewater treatment systems commonly used in areas without access to centralized sewer systems. Over time, solid waste and sludge settle at the bottom of the septic tank while lighter materials, such as oils and grease, float to the top. The middle layer, known as the effluent or clarified liquid, flows out of the tank into the drain field for further treatment.
Our Septic Pumping Process
Sheffield Rentals recommends regular septic pumping to prevent the accumulation of solids and sludge, which can cause the septic tank to become inefficient and potentially lead to system failure. We use specialized equipment, including a vacuum truck, to remove the accumulated waste from the tank. Typically, septic tanks require pumping every 3 to 5 years, but it's best to consult with Sheffield Rentals to determine the ideal pumping schedule for your specific situation.
