Maintaining your system, and keeping proper documentation of the services performed can be a valuable asset, not only for you but also for any future purchaser of your home. It’s a good idea to create a file for all of your maintenance records. To start, you’ll first need to locate your septic tank and drainfield. Next, it’s a good idea to create rough sketch with markers and measurements, as to the exact location of your septic systems access port on your tank. In order to perform proper maintenance and upkeep, your tank needs to be accessible for pumping and the drain field should be protected. For example, you wouldn’t want to accidentally place a workshop or portable storage building over your septic systems access point and by being informed as to it’s location.
