Septic Care Tips for Rural Homes

Protect your investment and prolong the life of your septic field with these simple rural plumbing practices:

Flush Only Toilet Paper

Never flush wipes, paper towels, feminine hygiene products, or dental floss, even if labeled flushable.

Keep Fats & Grease Out

Cooking oils and grease solidify inside pipes and coat your leaching bed soil, leading to premature failure.

Space Out Laundry Loads

Spread laundry over the week rather than doing multiple loads in one day to prevent hydraulic overloading.

Protect Your Drain Field

Never drive or park vehicles over the tank or bed, and avoid planting trees or large shrubs near drainage pipes.

Frequently Asked Questions

Common questions about septic inspection, repairs, and pumps in Oro-Medonte.

How often should I get a septic inspection in Oro-Medonte?

Most residential septic systems should be inspected every 2 to 3 years. Inspections ensure baffles, filters, and pump controls are functional, and help you comply with township maintenance programs.

What does the Township of Oro-Medonte septic maintenance program require?

The township's mandatory re-inspection program requires properties within designated zones to undergo periodic inspection of tanks, leaching beds, and clearances. We can help you check your system's readiness.

What are the warning signs of a failing septic pump?

Key signs include the pump alarm sounding, frequent continuous running, circuit breaker trips, slow drainage throughout the home, or wastewater ponding above the pump chamber.

Can a damaged septic baffle or filter be replaced without replacing the whole tank?

Yes. Broken inlet or outlet baffles, damaged sanitary tees, and clogged effluent filters can typically be repaired or retrofitted through tank risers without the need for a full tank replacement.

Why is my septic alarm buzzing and what should I do?

The alarm signals that effluent levels in the pump chamber are abnormally high. Stop using heavy water appliances immediately, silence the alarm, and call for emergency septic repair.
