  • The average household septic system should be inspected at least every three years by a septic service professional. Household septic tanks are typically pumped every three to five years. Alternative systems with electrical float switches, pumps, or mechanical components should be inspected

    These are the major factors that influence how often to pump your septic system:

    • Household size

    • Total wastewater generated

    • Volume of solids in wastewater

    • Septic tank size
