  • Inspect your system every 3 years and pump your tank as necessary (every 3 to 5 years).
  • Flush responsibly! Don't dispose of household hazardous waste, paper towels, kitty litter, diapers, or other sanitary items (other than toilet paper) down the sink or toilet.
  • Care for the septic system drainfield by not driving or parking vehicles on it. Plant only grass over and near the drainfield to avoid damage from tree roots.
  • Don’t flush expired or unwanted medications down the sink or toilet. You can safely dispose of medications at a prescription drop off box at your local pharmacy.
