Be sure to check your local and state laws before attempting to empty the cesspool by yourself. Aeration A chemical alternative for cleaning out the cesspool, aeration involves pouring sulfuric acid into the well or tank. The acid breaks down the solid waste and sludge, allowing air to pass through. As a result, the waste is dissolved without extensive pumping. The downside to this method is that sulfuric acid is corrosive and may cause damage to your septic system if not used properly. Hydro-Jetting Another alternative method used in wells which may reduce or eliminate the need for pumping is to use hydro-jetting. A high-pressure blast forces water into the ground at the bottom of the cesspool, breaking up the solids. Thi

Allowing the liquid effluent to drain to an overflow cesspool or leaching pool. Where it drains into the sand at the bottom. Bacteria then helps breakdown those solids by digesting them and aiding in taking some burden off of routine maintenance. Septic systems need maintenance and can't be circumvented. Maintenance intervals can be lengthened with the use of bacteria and enzymes and other additives. Most importantly routine maintenance can prolong the life of your system, but only when performed by a reputable cesspool and septic company such as  Murphy's Cesspool & Septic Tank Service . Plea
