![]() Have you used, or been told to use RID-X for septic maintenance? Additives like RID-X or yeast can actually cause you more money and headache than not using anything. RID-X contains much stronger enzymes than the natural bacteria that is found in a healthy septic system. Breaking down solids at a much more rapid rate actually allows them to travel out to your drain field. This will lead to your drain field becoming clogged and potentially even needing to be replaced, and the average septic system replacement cost could set you back anywhere from $8,000 - $25,000! How can you maintain a healthy septic system?
Be aware of everything you are putting down your sinks and NEVER treat your toilets or sinks like a garbage can.

You made a good point when you shared that it is important to ensure that your system is working correctly by conducting regular inspections. My uncle just mentioned the other day that he is thinking of getting a septic tank for his new house that he just built a few months ago. I will suggest to him looking for a reliable service that can offer to inspect it regularly.

You made a good point when you shared that your septic tank needs to be pumped every 3 years depending on the size of the tank and the home's water usage. My uncle just mentioned the other day that he is going to move to a new house in a few months and it comes with a septic system. I will suggest to him looking for a reliable service that can help to pump it regularly.

Thanks for pointing out that getting a septic system inspection would be able to keep the tank working properly and prevent clogs and broken pipes. I will be inheriting the property of my grandmother, and I plan to live there before this year ends. It seems that it is best to have an inspection service first to ensure that I will have no issues there in the future and live there comfortably.
