Flushing tanks regularly keeps septic system working

(Sept. 24, 2012) -- Nothing on earth is going to make the sewer tank smell good, but you will have fewer aromatic surprises when you flush your toilet after the clean out. I advise a monthly clean out in summer and using the built-in sprayer each dump. I would recommend doing this about every other month in cooler weather, but you really can’t do it too often, said Martinkus.
