Let's face it. A lot of things in your plumbing system are out of sight, out of mind. Your septic tank is no exception. Unfortunately, neglecting to maintain your septic system can wind up costing you thousands. The Environmental Protection Agency recommends having your septic tank inspected every 3 years, and pumped every 3 to 5 years to keep it working in optimal condition. Call Connor Plumbing Company for tank inspections and pumping, and we'll be glad to tell you about specialized products that can help protect the natural balance of bacteria in your septic tank.
