Septic Tank Water Level, Tampa, FL

When working on your tank, our technicians will check the septic tank water level.

Within the septic tank on your property, you will find liquid and solid waste. The solid waste forms layers, known as sludge, which must be removed every few years to prevent the tank from becoming overloaded and backing up. The liquid waste is treated within the tank and then moves out through the pipes to the drain field. In order to avoid sewage backups and problems with your tank, it’s important to keep track of the septic tank water level. At Tampa Bay Septic, we offer a range of septic services. During a maintenance service, we can check the water level and determine when the tank will need service.
