Toilet Repair/Replacement
Monitor your water consumption. Even if your tank(s) are properly cleaned routinely, you can still cause failure by hydraulically overloading it by using more water than your system was designed to handle or can handle. A septic system is designed, when it is installed, to handle a certain daily water usage based on the number of occupants proposed to be living in the home. Think water conservation! Average water usage: shower: 2.5 gallons per minute, toilet: 2 gallons per flush (for toilets bought in the last 20 years), washing machine: 40 gallons per load, dishwasher: 10 gallons. Front loading washers use 1/3 less water than top loading units. Large flows such as laundry should be spaced out across the week (no more than 2 loads per day is recommended), rather than running 5 or 6 loads on a single day. Only use the clothes washer and dishwasher when you have a full load. Always promptly repair leaky fixtures, faucets and toilets. A running toilet can add as much as 200 gallons per day of flows to a septic system. Water treatment equipment / softeners should also be kept in check to minimize the number of backwash cycles per week to the least necessary to sufficiently treat the water conditions. Large whirlpool tubs should also be used with moderation since some tubs can hold close to the equivalent of an entire family's daily flow.
