Quit flushing anything besides toilet paper down your toilet! A simple google search will show you how destructive flushing feminine products or moist wipes down the toilet is for your septic system. Flushing these products down your toilet inevitably leads to more septic services and more money. If you are on sewer, you are really damaging city waste lines by flushing anything down the toilet besides toilet paper. This is becoming more and more of an issue, so the Doo Doo Guru wanted to post this advice right away so that 2019 will reveal much healthier septic tank systems! 🙂

Happy Happy Spring!

Do you have serious calcium build up in your water? Is it causing calcium build up in your lines? Dump a small glass of cubed ice down your toilet and flush every couple of months. It will help break up calcium deposits.

Septic Tip: Are you thinking about buying a swimming pool? Whether it’s above ground or in-ground make sure you don’t have it built on top of your septic tank or field lines. Get a copy of your septic permit from the county Environmentalist office to show you where your system sits! 

Happy Spring…. and then we blinked!

Paper products you should avoid flushing:

• Feminine hygiene products
• Dental floss
• Condoms
• Paper towels
• Diapers

Just because something says biodegradable does not mean it will degrade quickly enough to avoid a problem if it clogs up with other waste. This can result in costly repairs. 

Household chemicals you shouldn’t flush:

• Fats, oil and grease
• Coffee grounds
• Solid food waste
• Bleach or other cleaning chemicals

There is a natural, biological treatment that is taking place in your tank. Flushing any chemicals down your toilet interferes drastically with this process. The only way to keep your maintain a healthy septic tank is to have it pumped every 3-5 years.

How do you take the most effective preventative measures against your septic tank having problems?

There is no better way to prevent septic disasters than having your tank pumped every 3 years for the average size household. There are no chemicals that will compare to having your septic tank pumped. It is a tank, it will get full. It will come out somehow, and you do not want it backing up into your washer & dryer along with other places because you haven’t had it emptied in way too long. The damage of not taking care of your septic tank can result in a much higher costing repair than if you just had the tank serviced regularly. Think oil changes for vehicles. If you don’t do standard maintenance on your vehicle… it eventually costs you a lot more money because of the damage. However, that can be avoided. For both, vehicles & septic tanks! 😉

If it has been over 3 years, please call the Doo Doo Guru today!
