When vehicle spares are ill maintained, problems may happen. Other than the pumps, the main trouble with any new or used Septic Pumping Okemah OK trucks that are part of a work fleet are the results of improper use and maintenance of the hoses.

Equipment Working Together- To achieve the most efficient vacuum in a tank that will give the pump the power for strong suction, the tank and pump must be appropriately sized to work together; a bigger tank or pump does not necessarily work any better. An incorrectly matched pump and the tank can cause hose problems as well, whether in the form of clogging or simply not having enough vacuum to create the suction required for the job.

The failing of it can be hazardous to the health of those living near it. For one to enjoy good sewer service, one should locate a reputable service company in his or her local area and have the system inspected regularly. The tank also requires regular emptying depending on the size of it and the overall waste, that is water usage of your household. One should therefore not overlook those valuable routine inspections. One should also make repairs of broken parts, also avoid placing heavy objects on the underground tank and the drain field. Avoid parking vehicles on the tank or drainage field.

Wet areas should not be ignored as they could be as a result of malfunctioning of the system. Planting shrubbery or trees over these areas is not good because the shade could inhibit evaporation and the roots could infiltrate and damage the structures. Covering the absorption field with hard surfaces like asphalt or concrete is also not advisable. Grass is great because it helps prevent erosion and aids in removing excess water.

One of the main causes of damage to a sewer system is trees. Trees send down their roots, and they can get into the drain field piping where water needs to be able to escape. If that happens, you will need to have the roots removed to make sure your system can function properly.

After emptying the last contents from the hose itself into the tank, rinse it out by vacuuming up a large amount of clean water is recommended. Once clean on the inside, the hoses are ready to be stored on the truck without leaving material on the line to dry and create an obstruction.

Clearing Hoses- If vacuum pressure is insufficient when the tank being pumped is empty and material remnants sitting in the length of the hose cannot be vacuumed up, this might indicate an air leak somewhere along the length of the line, as the pump should not lose suction until the tube has been completely emptied. Closing the gate valve will allow more pressure to build up; when opened, it can then clear remaining debris from the passageways.

The extra effort to see that vacuum hoses are emptied and cleaned out at the job site, properly disconnected, and stored on the septic trucks is essential to keep those important passageways useable. Finishing any job with cleaning and caring for the equipment is the best thing for the equipment and shows customers a company and employees who care about work, equipment, and most of all doing a good job!
