MomOfToo is on a distinguished road
I was told every 2 years. We are a family of 4, but one is still in diapers lol! We are having them put in a bigger tank (1250) because eventually we want to expand to a 4 bedroom. I have no problem of pumping it every year if I can prolong the life of it. I use Scott tissue now. My uncle who is a drain cleaner always told me to use that kind of toilet paper because its breaks down faster and I mentioned that to the septic inspector and he told me that is fine. I just have to get my son used to throwing those flushable wipes into the garbage can versus the toilet, those don't break down that well even though they say "flushable." Thank you all so much for all the advice. I grew up with sewer/city water. Now I have to deal with well, septic and oil! Ugh-thats what I get for moving to the country I guess!
