Winter is coming is my Septic Tank Ready?
What do you need to do to prepare your septic tank for winter
Well you don’t need to do much, because when it was installed it would have been installed correctly and would have been insulated properly to ensure weather damage can’t get to the Septic tank.
You could pour some antifreeze into the septic tank to stop the waste water from freezing and expanding within the septic tank, just make sure that the antifreeze won’t hurt the friendly bacteria within the septic tank. But if it’s been installed properly you will not have to do this.
I would recommend having it emptied before winter comes just in case and to be on the safe side. If it where to get damaged it could cost a lot of money.
If your septic tank uses a soakaway or drain field, you might want to get these checked out as well just to be on the safe side, but again if it has been installed correctly then there should be nothing to worry about at all.
