Consider faucet aerators and other accessories like flow reducer nozzles, which not only helps increase air and water pressure, but also in turn, enable you to reduce water consumption as well as water levels so your septic system doesn’t get overloaded. o Direct water from land and roof drains away from the drain field – plan your landscaping in a way that will help water to be diverted away from your septic drain field. o

  3. What NOT to do when maintaining your septic system 1. ​Don’t use a garbage disposal (garbage disposals increase the volume of solid waste that your septic system needs to process). 2. ​Don’t flush anything except toilet paper into your septic system. Not only are paper products clog-hazards—they also add to the sludge inside the septic tank. 3. ​Don’t put household chemicals down the drain minimize the use of heavy-duty cleaners and household chemicals which can end up killing beneficial bacteria within your septic system. 4. ​Don’t use anything that is not septic safe for drain clogs – this may damage your septic pipes and destroy the balance in the septic tank’s ecosystem. Washout Drain Maintenance is a good example of a SEPTIC SAFE cleaner. 5. ​Don’t park cars and trucks on your drain field or septic tank. Protect your septic system by leading the driveway away from the septic tank area. Keep it free from concrete structure, but do plant grass on the soil over and around it to minimize erosion.
