Most of the time homeowners probably do not think too much about their septic system. Even though about one-third of all homes in America, and Arizona is not an exception, are reliant upon their own sewage system, the septic system. If you are on your own septic system it is important to understand that everything your pour down the drain leads to a single pipe leading into the septic tank. But everything does not react the same when it gets there. Heavy things sink to the bottom of the tank creating sludge. The lighter weight waste, such as oils and protein matter stay floating on top, called scum. In between is the gray water separating both of these in the middle. Yes, not something we homeowners give much thought to until the system backs up, stopping drains and toilets from working properly and sending rancid and hideous smells into our homes.

To prevent this or fix this problem call on the experts at Septic Tank Cleaning Mesa AZ to restore your home to its proper working condition and ease the senses from the unacceptable and unwelcomed smells.
