Regular maintenance will keep sediment from backing up inside of the tank. Sediment can not only cause the sewage in the tank to back up into your house, but it can cause the tank to fail completely. If the cost of pumping your septic tank seems a bit steep, remember that the cost of cleanup and repair of a failed septic system will be much higher. | |

These products may well remove odors, but they have the side effect of damaging the rubber in your toilet, which can prevent your toilet from functioning correctly. |
- | + | Don't pay a plumber midway through the job. Although you might be required to pay a down payment before the job is initiated, never pay the bill in full until you are certain that the job is completed to your satisfaction. Agree with the plumber in advance on the job and payment. | |
- | + | Look at the overflow holes to ensure they aren't clogged up. Overflow holes divert water when a sink starts to fill up. That doesn't happen often, but when it does, it can be a big problem if there is a clog. Clear the overflow holes periodically when you are doing your periodic checks for other problems and things that need to be repaired. | |
- | + | To increase the useful life of your garbage disposal, clean it out regularly. You can run lemon rinds and dish soap through your disposal to help keep it smelling fresh and operating in an efficient manner. | |
- | + | Maintain smooth functioning of the drain in your bathtub by dropping baking soda and then vinegar down it on a monthly basis. Plug the drain afterwards or cover it with a washcloth, as the two chemicals are going to react with each other. Pause a few minutes, and then follow the mixture with boiling water. Your pipes will soon be clear of accumulated hair and soap scum. | |
- | + | Do not flush unneeded things down your toilet if you want to lessen your chance of having issues. For example, don't flush sanitary pads or diapers down your toilet. These items can clog the pipes. Also, you want to use the least amount of toilet paper to clean yourself. | |

It seems like water would help make the disposal function more smoothly, and many people simply assume that this is so, but it is not really the case. Water can cause food to stick to the moving parts, and this could create damage. |
