Cesspool Pumping Services 
Cesspools operate as well as the soil they are installed into. Most cesspools only require solids removal every 5 years or so. Make sure you ask your cesspool builder for the solids to be pumped. 80% of cesspools will respond to a single pumping. You may opt to apply chemicals to address the buildup on the bottom and walls of your cesspool. What to know when you need service:

• Cesspool Port Access Location: You need to have your cesspool exposed for service. Generally, if you can find
   the perimeter of the concrete lid, the center is where to dig.
• Inflow-to-Outflow Ratio: If you have more water going into the cesspool than flowing out of the cesspool, eventually 
  you will back up. Address leaks and install low-flow fixtures to reduce inflow. Ground treatment is available for 
  increasing outflow.

Septic Tank Cleaning & Service
A septic tank has 3 main functions:

1) To remove and treat greases and solids in the wastewater.
2) To store greases and solids until they are removed (by a professional septic 
    tank pumper).
3) To slowly release wastewater over an area of land so it can be absorbed by 
    the soil.
