When I tore down an old farm house I had to dig up the old septic tank. It didn't even have a drain field. It just connected to the farmer's field tile and drained into the local creek.

My grandfathers house was built in the early 1900s and used to have a cess pit made of brick that drained into the nearby river. Crazy how things used to be back in the day 😂

was the same thing where i am from a lot of the older houses had man made cesspools my old neighbor had a car door as a cesspool lid and next to him the other neighbor had a old refrigerator used as a cess pit with some type hacked of drain field like you said people did crazy stuff back then

I just had mine pumped, it was backing up in the yard from the clean out. Probably hadn't been cleaned since the 90's. Elderly grandma was the only user, no toilet paper, no wipes, no roots, pump guys said it didn't even stink. She passed away and 5 people moved into the house, I think it overloaded it. It's no outlet side, but it has 2 field line pipes running out of it. Top layer was water, bottom was sludge. House was built in the 50's, I think we got lucky with such a well kept tank. Her husband would pump it out himself, he'd run the line out in the garden. (back in the day)

Ever think of putting a clear 6" PVC pipe section between the hose and stinger to watch the action...? You can see what the pump is pulling into the truck.

Cesspools were sufficient in days past when people used less water, houses were smaller, and appliances like dishwashers and garbage disposals weren't that common. Note that there's a newer type system allowed in our area called a "peat" system that uses a container of peat instead of a conventional drain field to receive the effluent. This system is indicated when there's lack of space, high water tables or when perk tests fail. Homeowners with peat systems are required to have a maintenance contract with the installer and the peat is inspected annually as it eventually requires replacement. Thanks for the video young man!

It is cool to know how people dealt with sewage is the past now that a lot of houses are connected to city waste treatment plants, also a fun fact about septic tanks is that if you live in a house where the land it not suitable or not able to connect to a city waste treatment plant then the house is septic, keep in mind that this fact depends on what state you live in, thank you for reading!

I had the septic tank installed when I built my house in 1996 and I didn’t know it needed to be serviced. I have never had it open. Don’t even know if it has tops on it lids.

Been considering one. I’m in south Texas and it’s like rock here. How do they hold up long term? I don’t mind buying one, but I don’t wanna be buying one every couple years.

@Leonardokite 10 ай бұрын

@@elijah3807 as far as capabilities go, it works okay in gravel type rock, but once you get to rocks bigger than 3 or 4 inches nothing works that I have found. The probe tip itself gets rounded off, but you can grind it back to a near original shape, losing a little bit of length, for quite a long time. The ball valve tends to wear out/leak but it is just a cheap buy at Home Depot/any good hardware store item. For the price if it works only for a small percentage of your septic locates, it is well worth it.

@jjw6342 10 ай бұрын

Do all septic tanks have a large lid opening? When they clean out mine they just pull out this 6 inch pipe in the ground and suck it out of there.
