Cleaning Your Septic System

In the Kansas City area many residents are not connected to a city sewer.  If not, you will probably have a septic system.  The average homeowner probably knows little or nothing about the operation and especially the maintenance of that system.  If it overflows you and the neighbors will know more than they ever wanted to know!

By design, these systems are fairly simple. All drains in the home converge to a single pipe that leads to the septic tank buried outside.  When the waste water from your toilet, shower, sinks and washing machine leave your house, it's combined. When it hits the septic tank, however, it begins to separate.  As simple as their design may be, septic systems require the homeowner to monitor them before problems arise.

Do you want to “monitor” the waste in your septic tank?  I don’t!  That is why you call the plumbing professionals at Poor Johns Plumbing, serving the Kansas City metro.  Their trained technicians will tell you whether you need routine maintenance, repairs or total replacement.  For a list of phone numbers to call in your area visit their website at www.poorjohns.com and call for a free estimate.  Leave the dirty work to the people with expertise.
