Modern septic systems contain tanks that store waste that you flush out of your home. Once in the tank, this waste separates into liquid, floating solids, and heavier solids, known as sludge. Some of this is expelled into your yard, but some remains in the tank. Over time, this can build up, causing problems such as backups or system failures.

Septic pumping in Southern Illinois removes the sludge and other solid waste to protect your system and your home. Rex Vault Service offers reliable, professional, and timely septic pumping service to local homeowners who want to protect their properties.

Importance of Routine Pumping

When you invest in routine septic pumping, rather than waiting until you have a problem with your system, you give yourself peace of mind. During your routine pumping, we’ll not only remove solids, liquids, and sludge from the system, but we’ll also inspect it.

Pumping lets our technicians see components of the septic system that are normally not visible. Routine pumping also reduces wear and tear on the system. This helps reduce the risk of a breakdown while increasing the lifespan of the system.

Here are some of the reasons why a septic tank pump out is important:
  • Inspect system for leaks
  • Reduce risk of failure
  • Less need for septic tank repair
  • Lower cost of septic tank care
  • Extend the lifespan of the system

Frequently Asked Questions

How often should septic pumping be done?

We recommend septic pumping at least every three to five years. If you have a high volume of waste from your property, you may need more frequent pumping service.

What are the signs your tank needs pumping?

You may need septic pumping if your drains are moving slowly, you have a backup, or you’re noticing problems in the leach field. If you can smell your septic tank when you step outside, you need to have it pumped. Standing water in your yard is another sign, and high nitrates in your well water can also indicate a problem.

What happens during septic pumping?

During septic pumping, we will remove the solid and liquid waste from your septic tank using a high-powered vacuum truck. Once the sludge is removed, we will inspect the system for hidden damage or repair needs below the sludge.
