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. The cost to have your tank pumped might be a little steep, but it sure beats the alternative of dealing with sewage in your home or on your property. | |
